inteerested to find others.
I always thought it was fast much faster better than spikes or racing shoes.

Hey, if you find a group of people that do a lot of barefoot running you should write a book about them. Might garner some attention.
100% true
It seemed to work for Faith Kipyegon.
Orange Coast College, we went to UCI and ran around their big grass field (It is about Half a Mile to go around, someone said actually 900 Yards) almost everyone ran Barfoot, and even when doing intervals at the OCC track most ran on the grass on the inside of the track barefoot (they put in an all Weather Track and now it is not possible to run on the inside of the track all the way around near the outside.
Luther College has had several.
Didn't Stillwater used to do some of their work barefoot?
Did 2 lap cooldowns with socks on, on the turf every once and a while

You sound like the stupid and gullible one. The reason why you can’t run barefoot is because you never do.
yes people who bought vibrams and continued to run as usual weren’t thinking right. You need to work up the muscles in your feet to be able to handle it. It’s easier for those who grew up not wearing shoes often but those who have always worn shoes have a harder time.
Running barefoot is not stupid, it’s just far removed from modern society
