thanks to Promotion Events (and their predecessor), the annual Fremont 5K Fun Run has been the "RunningBarefoot Run of the Month" for Seattle  since 2003. They provide us a table to (1) promote running barefoot, (2) display/post recent news articles featuring running barefoot, and (3) offer  RunningBarefoot.org goods (shirts, bumper stickers, etc.). 

We offer free running barefoot tips and probably should charge a dollar every time someone asks to see our soles.  Many interested runners show up from invitations we liberally issue during  our participation in various other area events (e.g. Resolution Run and Splash, Valentine 5K,  St. Pat's Dash, Mercer Island Half Marathon, Tacoma City Marathon etc.).

.

We usually have 2-3 barefoot runners and are hoping for 2X that this year from as far away as Lee's Summit, MO (Barefoot Rick) and Vancouver, Washington down by Portland (Barefoot Ryan)..

.

please join us if possible and have your Seattle area running friends join us too. 

thanks.
