First barefoot run of the season

I can’t wait until the weather is warm enough to pull on my Five Fingers and go for a run in the woods. Regular running shoes may have better padding, but they also reduce my balance and make my feet feel boxed in and suffocated. I like to feel the ground when I run.

Why I prefer running in barefoot shoes:

  • Improves balance by giving my toes a better grip
  • They feel weightless
  • They develop the muscles in the feet and legs

Join me for my morning run. Running speed: 8-10 KM per hour.
