By Barefoot Megan | Published: July 31, 2010

By Soul Man | Published: July 31, 2010

I’m supposed to be building up for Bristol Half Marathon in September – we entered months ago.  If I had kept up my training from the Mendip Challenge it would be a breeze but, alas, although I have been… Continue reading

Very tired after Sunday’s half marathon to Wells and back but was still up for the Monday night hash at Priddy because it was such a wonderful evening.  I’m not sure if I rolled my left foot at some… Continue reading

Snowdon Mountain Race

By GC | Published: July 26, 2010

Firstly, I should say that no, I didn’t run up and down Snowdon barefoot.

However, it’s been quite an eventful week.

What’s Going On With My Knees?

By Soul Man | Published: July 22, 2010

I’m feeling a slight sensitivity in the small toes of my left foot, so maybe they;re being abraded now, rather than the balls of that foot.

A bit of a wimpy week, barefoot-wise.

By Fiona | Published: July 21, 2010

Weekly miles: 31

Barefoot miles: 1

I’m a bit disappointed to say that this week I’ve only run a mile with no shoes on. I raced on Saturday, and I’m not in any barefoot shape at the moment to race… Continue reading

Another revealing barefoot run

By GC | Published: July 20, 2010

The Day After

By Soul Man | Published: July 20, 2010

I went Hashing on Monday night, after the barefoot run, as usual.   I wore my off-road shoes and there was some sensitivity but it was not too bad, just some tenderness in the pads.

This morning they are… Continue reading
