another BF racewalk on track last night, this time it was 3000m, and I did taped few toes and teh front, but it came off during race as teh track was wett after recent rain, could go longer if teh race was longer, no blisters It allowed me perfect teachnique and very fast pace, considering how tired and stuffed I was after accumualted racing-training session last few days my technique really changed and this partially was a reason for my new personal best at 15 km racewalk distance last sunday by 7 minutes, I did it in racing flats, but the transfer of the technique and different biomechanics is happening, did cooldown walk after race BF for 3km, just than realized how much gravel was there on the road course

Perhaps your training is giving you an unfair advantage too. Maybe you should stop.

last night at masters athletics, I again racewalked barefoot on synthetic track : 2 x 2000m about 1 hour appart second race very close to my PB, wothout going too hard - already had 21 km in my legs for the day between races I slowly jogged in minimalist shoes - so minimalists - I cut off the soles of older shoes in attempt to create the thinniest racing flats, that there are holes in them, no insoles .
