:D Barefoot Running

[Hanneke]

I'm running the village fun run http://www.funrun.hinstock.com/ on Sunday and I'll have the dilemma of which shoes (if any) to ware . Difficult as I don't really run on roads .

Go barefoot

Last year I ran a 4 mile road race, barefoot... you should have seen the faces of fellow runners and spectators!!!

I started off racing that series (one a month over the summer months) on road racing flats, Saucony Grid Fastwitch, without socks... The next race I ran in F-lite 230's which I also always wear without socks... and the third one I started off warming up by running a few stretches barefoot and though what the heck... especially when someone asked if I was going to race barefoot... OK, no pb... and slightly sore and 'glowing' hot footpads afterwards, but no other ill effects
