We in the process of planning a barefoot runner meet-up on the weekend of May 8th based around the Fifth Third Riverbank Run in Grand Rapids, MI.  The race distances include 5k, 10k, and 25k.  We don't have many details planned yet other than a party Friday night, race on Saturday, then another party after the race.  You don't have to be a good barefoot runner, just able to walk at least the 5k.
