still running

still running using VFF’s , I haven’t worn trainers to run for months now and doubt I ever will.  its such a different experience that putting shoes on would seem ridiculous now,  like putting boxing gloves on to go climbing.  my rock climbing has improved greatly and mostly due to the increased power in my lower legs, im sure the benefits would be felt in other sports as well.

i have been laughing at the trainer manufacturers scrambling to jump on the barefoot bandwagon , it seems as if they are all claiming their shoes are like not wearing any at all. great! pay £100 for less material ! some people must be doing it though. common sense tells you that you need the cheapest least supportive way of protecting your feet from sharp rocks etc you can get surf shoes for £5 and they work just as well. I think Nike et al’s days are numbered in the shoe department 🙂
