    Hi, I'm doing a project on barefoot running and would really appreciate if you could take the time to fill out my questionnaire.
    Don't worry it's not very long!

        Dumb survey; doesn't take into account the folks who believe the human body didn't evolve to safely run barefoot on pavement.

        Fat old man PRs:

        • 1-mile (point to point, gravity assist): 5:50
        • 2-mile: 13:49
        • 5K (gravity assist last mile): 21:31
        • 5-Mile: 37:24
        • 10K (first 10K of my Half Marathon): 48:16
        • 10-Mile (first 10 miles of my Half Marathon): 1:17:40
        • Half Marathon: 1:42:13

            Is the project supposed to gather information of any probative value?

              No, no, they're interested in bare feet, not bare noses.

              It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

                Lasting pain.  Stepping on those darn legos and Barbie shoes and stuff in the dark always leaves me in pain lasting for a while.

                  Actually it doesn't seem concerned with whether your feet are bare, only whether you run using the barefoot technique or in the barefoot running style. That could mean anything. I took it to mean the way in which I run.

                   

                  And obviously running in the barefoot running style is a fully fledged alternative to playing video games so I checked that box too.

                    What if running with in the barefoot style is for me only a partially fledged alternative to, you know, stuff.

                      I think I got all 7 questions correct.

                        I have done it Amy, I'm the one who went back to midfoot strike in 'normal' running shoes after trying barefoot shoes.

                        I'm still suffering, just not so bad. Smile

                            Amy, are you there?  Hello?

                             

                            Think this is another drive-by survey spam?

                             

                            I always wonder if the appropriate response to drive-by survey spam might be to fill out the survey with invented answers a bunch of times.

                            It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

                              I'm wondering.  I don't know what they get out of it, though.
