I'm more of a lurker to this thread, but have wanted to try this for a little while now. Ran a marathon a few weeks ago and finally recovered and don't have any more races planned for a few months so I figured now was the time to try it out. I don't have any real injuries, knock on wood, but like the idea and theories behind running barefoot.

So ran a mile tonight and lets see how I feel tomorrow. 

Timberman 70.3 is an awesome race. I ran it in 08. The swim is great. The bike..I've heard they changed it up a little bit..added a hill I think , can be tough. There are some pretty long climbs early going out then it's smooth sailing til the turn around then it seems like your in a headwind most of the way back, a few more climbs and your done. The run is a double out and back that isn't too bad fairly flat with one little hill and a gradual decline back to the finish. I'm going to run it again this year as well, see ya there!
