you aren't playing basketball in the five fingers are you :-)

For me, basketball and running are like oil and vinegar, they just don't mix. A game of basketball is a guaranteed sprained ankle for me! But the lateral motion is actually probably good for your feet. I am thinking of starting to play some racquetball again to do the same.

I've thought about it, but other people's shoes concern me a bit.

Have you been barefoot running lately?

From Jason McK on Wed, Jul 08, 2009 at 12:09:55 from 63.255.173.99

Kelli - I haven't, I think I had some sort of deep bruise in the pad of my left foot. I did run in VFFs and didn't really notice much, so I plan on running part of my run Thursday barefoot. How's the PF?

IT HURTS. I should probably take a running break, but I do not want to.

Are you going to wear your 5 finger thingies in a marathon?

That's too bad - sometimes it seems like taking time off is harder than training harder!

I plan on doing the TOU half at the end of August in the VFFs. Depending on how that goes, I may do the TOU marathon in them in the 3 weeks later.
