"Your possessions should set you free like a boat or a pair of [minimalist footwear]. If you work for your possessions and they don't set you free, what are you working for?"  Billy Harris

FiveFingers as the Barefoot "Trojan Horse"

DateThursday, March 25, 2010 at 4:38PM

Barefoot Ted (McDonald), one of Christopher McDougall's characters in Born to Run, shares more detail on his experiences transitioning to barefoot running. If you have an hour to spare, it is definitely worth watching. Ted appropriately refers to Vibram FiveFingers as a "Trojan Horse" in the paradigm shift to barefoot activity. He also offers metaphorical advice on starting out with barefoot running when he advises to treat it like learning a new language. There is lots to learn from this active barefoot runner. Check out his blog Barefoot Ted's Adventures.
