    .. i went on my first barefoot run today 1.5 miles without problems, and my feet feel amazing right now it's wild :)

    have any of you guys ever gotten down with the barefoot running?

    I rarely go barefoot. I never liked it even as a kid. I do live in sandels all spring and summer.

    I go barefoot as often as possible and always have my silver toe ring on (don't even take it off when I do have shoes on). As far as runnin' goes, the only time I plan on runnin' is if something very large is chasin' me.

    Althea, we may not have the barefoot thing in common, but we sure as hell have the running thing in common.

    I would like to, but it is really an unwise plan around here. Annoying dumbass people have a habit of breaking beer bottles every where that they possibly can. I can't even go barefoot on the beach without using extreme caution.

    I enjoy going barefoot when I can. Unfortunately, that's not too often. But I have gone running barefoot on the beach, and it's lot more comfortable than running with shoes on. I don't know the next time I'm going to the beach, but that's the best place for me to go running barefoot. I run often, but usually not barefoot, since I feel more comfortable running with shoes on.

    Running is great through grass. Especially uncut soft moist grass. I hate running over manmade things... gravel, glass... metal.... But your feet do build mad calluses.

    I'm not much of a runner, but I love being barefoot... I garden a lot, and I'm usually in my bare feet, it feels so good with the soil between my toes...
