Run to Win25 Marathons, 17 Ultras, 16 States (Full List)
One day at a time
Run in them? For real?
Yeah, why not? That's why I made them. I can't wear open-toed shoes to work.
Is it comfortable? Does the knot at the bottom get in the way? As seen on this picture:
Other than a very brief jog in front of the house last night I haven't tried them running yet, but I didn't even notice the knot. I melted it so that it wouldn't come undone and flattened it pretty good in the process and I imagine running on it will only flatten it more. There's an alternate way of putting the knot in where the knot is on the top, but I didn't see the need to put an extra hole in, mostly because the hole is smaller than the cord so it's tough to get it through.
I'll provide some updates about how well they work once I've had a few runs in them.

looks like bodyglide between the toes will be a must.
I doubt it; they're pretty tight.
My hamstring has been bugging me the last few days though so I didn't run today.
Got pretty good at the juggling game on my wife's wii fit, though.

Whoa. That's some serious dirt there.
LOL, my son will come home from a run looking like that. If I don't say anything, he'll go to bed that way. When I tell him to take a shower, he rolls his eys! Ick.
