Workout 2 for the week in the bag. It was fun because we had some wet weather and the trail was wet even though it really wasn't cold. The wife had a little trouble because she started out a... read more

I'd like to see how far I can go. To prove to myself I don't have limits. First I got to figure out why my foot doesn't agree with this plan.

#dailymission How do you feel about barefoot and/or minimalist running? -- I feel like it's made me a stronger better runner and more than that, it's fun. I'm never going back.

You're right Staci. You MUST build slowly. But the same is true for shod running or any other exercise. When you start something new you need to work into it slowly or the chances are really good that you will hurt yourself. The problem is many people think barefoot running is just shod running without shoes though. It's not.

Nice to meet you too Island. :) It's funny, whenever I notice a picture of one of us out there barefoot and a big old grin on our faces I get all excited and shout "Oh! My peeps! Woot!" Grats on your 50k btw. That's definitely on my bucket list.

Thanks. Ya the ankle has no issue bearing weight under normal conditions. I'm just being careful to stay away from activities that make it act up. Hard to explain the nature of the injury but then that's about par for the course for me huh? lol

I thought Triathlons were crazy. Now I'm kinda hoping I get to do one some day. I'd have to seriously work on my swimming and spend way more money than I have available on a bike though so probably not right away. Someday.

I just thought anyone getting up early to do any kind of exercise was nuts.

Good for both you & your wife! Running in a (not freezing) downpour rocks and barefoot would just make it better!
