Anyone do this? I bought some running sandals and tried it last week.
My calves were crazy sore for three days, but I'm going to try it out again today.

i run in the nude

With or without shoes?
Seems like running nude would be hard. My dick would slap me in the face all the time.

Here is a pic of what I'm talking about. You can feel the gravel through these things.
You have to abandon the heel kick that you're used to with modern shoes.

it's usually after I spend an hour or two buried in the mud. And I'm often erect when running. No slapping there.

”While on foot, the Tarahumara do not stroll from one place to their destination, running is used to perform everyday tasks. It is not uncommon for a Tarahumara to travel between fifty and eighty miles everyday at a “race” like pace…It is also said that a Tarahumara once ran six hundred miles in five days to deliver a very important message. The Tarahumara call themselves “raramuri” which means fleet foot or foot runner. ”

I had shower shoes in the military that were a step-up from those.

Where do you keep your gun?
I keep one gun in my left hand and one gun in my right hand.
I'm not going to tell you where I keep the high capacity magazine.

Why dont you buy yourself a nice pair of wine cork sandals to minimize the impact to your shins and soles when you jog down the street.

They used to advertise in the muscle mags for these calf building shoes years ago. Anyone ever tried them ?
-
Run barefoot on grass or sand...even better, because your arch is a natural spring.

I threw up in my mouth a little bit when I saw those nasty feet. If you want to have shoes for running that feel like barefoot try these things. http://www.vibramfivefingers.com/index.htm

excellent advice,
another problem is soreness if one does run to often, this caused med to run backwards during a month to alleviate and it build my calves up like nothing else done!

Ever since I got my Merrels I've not worn socks but the best ones I've ever worn are the Snap-On branded socks you can get on the tool truck.

i always had a problem with that rubber part on the bottom of the shoe pulling off or the leather breaking on a shoe. work boots are highly undervalued and underappreciated in all aspects. they weigh more wich forces you to try harder. i only wear normal shoes around the house for comfort when my feet want to be relaxed

I bought some vibrams about a year ago. First time I went running it felt good but took some getting used to. My ankles and caves, especially the lower part between the calf and ankle were incredibly sore after and i couldn't walk too great for the next few days. Now that I've gotten used to them, my running speed and eficiency hae gone through the roof. Running up hill and stairs is a hell of a lot easier. Also wearing them for leg training has been tremendous. My knees feel great too.

I just ran a few miles for the second time in running sandals.
I expect I'll be pretty sore again tomorrow. I also got a blister close to where I got one the first time. I'm not too worried about it, my feet are still adjusting.
Do you think your over-all speed is significantly reduced? It seems like mine is but it's hard to tell, I just run around the neighborhood and I don't have a way of keeping track of how far I've gone. I ran for thirty minutes but it seems like I'm running at a slower pace.
Also, do you land towards the front of your foot all the time? I was seeing some people saying that they land in the middle of the foot. I'm not real comfortable with that, still too much shock to my heel. I definitely land on the ball of my foot. Just wondering if that's "correct".
Anyway, I run everyday and will get a lot more used to it, especially when I am able to do it many times per week.
I tried those Vibrams on, a few pair, but my foot just isn't built for them.
