Starting last Sunday I have done all of my runs this week in my new Vibram Cherry huarache sandals:
I have put about 20 miles in, over a variety of terrain. I did 8 miles of gravel road and trail last weekend, and the rest on asphalt, concrete, and grass next to sidewalks. I am loving these! It’s just a blast when the weather is nice to feel the sun and wind on the tops of your feet. I also don’t mind the extra bit of sole protection over pure barefoot. The only downside to these is that fact anyone who looks at you thinks you are a freak – it’s a good thing I’m used to that. Actually, most people don’t even make eye contact because they are staring at your feet. These are definitely keepers.
I also received another style of Feelmax shoes for testing. They look fantastic and felt great around the house, I can’t wait to hit the trails with them. More details soon (hopefully).
