      I also got a migraine at the end of the run once I stopped running and sat down...maybe the blood started to pool I dont know but 50% of my 5k races end in migraines does this happen to anyone else??

      Be careful with the five fingers...make sure you work the mileage/speed up slowly and listen to your body. I've read quite a few stories about people with Metatarsal and other injuries from doing too much too soon in five fingers/barefoot running (uses the muscles differently).

      Awesome job! Sounds a little like a relay I've run a few times (minus the ice) called Dances With Dirt. I think we are short a runner at the moment if you're interested in running through swamps, run rivers, through lakes, etc. :-)
