Still running

Well, it's been a few weeks since I started running. Except for bad weather days I've gone every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. It's nice. I can actually feel a difference, and Jena says I'm getting sexy runner's legs. Cool.

I read an interesting article about how running shoes (and shoes in general) are ruining our feet and ankles, so I checked out some web sites (google for 'barefoot running', but be careful, the web sites are terrible...try one, you'll see what I mean). I think I may take some tax refund and get me a pair of Vibram Five Fingers.

I ran today with my Chuck Taylors, they're pretty close to barefoot. But I also ran a quarter-mile or so totally barefoot. I decided that like to have at least a thin layer of something between my feet and the abrasive (and soon to be scorching) asphalt. Not to mention my funky toes, which may make running completely barefoot more painful. I guess I'll see.
