Comments: I encountered some barriers to barefoot running this week. My Monday run started at about 10 or 11. I had a headlamp with me and was running out of town but did not want read more
I am so confused also, did the layout change on the webpage also? I thought it was set up so that we could communicate and talk with one another, but maybe not.

good run, felt strong going out (again against the wind 24mph, 30mph gusts…it’s relentless this week)

Went out against the wind (on the way out), 22mph and gusts at 30mph…rough way out, smooth sailing back in. Overall good run, feet felt excellent during and afterward.
