Just ran 8 miles in them yesterday on a trail.

If you're interested in learning more about the whole minimalist / VFF stuff give a look here at the runningahead barefoot group. There are lots of folks chatting all about this sort of thing.

I think VFF's are designed intelligently.

There are some, er, swampy images on that website.

I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

If that picture doesn't dispel the theory (i.e. myth) of evolution then nothing will. Wearing two bib #'s and neither one is in the right place? And I've heard that singlet doubles as toilet paper in a pinch. Heh heh, "pinch."

mta: I dispelled "dispel."
