Subject: RE: Barefoot running is less efficient than wearing shoes
Body:

I dislike when a person cites one scientific and then claims something like it is a fact.

i'm not doubting barefoot running could be less efficient, but like one of the other posters, the study gets at one of the key arguments of barefooters that running shoes absorb impact with cushioning and therefore can change the way you are running because you don't need to use lower leg muscles as much. this would lead more to the injury prevention argument.
