    While I don't plan on making barefoot running a huge part of my training I do plan on throwing a few shorter runs sans shoes here and there.
      Good luck and let us know how it goes.

        I'm thinking Saturday I'll do my first BF run. I'm racing a 5k or a 10k and may doff the shoes afterwards for a little cooldown. I've been searching and didn't see anything specific for new/first timers but I get the impression I just run a bit until it starts to get uncomfortable and/or I get blisters.

          You could check out the Runners World Barefoot forum, there are a few stickies there that might provide some good tips to get started.
