Does anyone do it here? I'm about to try it, but getting a bit bamboozled by all the technical advise :/

Take shoes off and run. Make sure you miss any dog poo, chewing gum or glass

It's meant to help them over time, more natural ect, worth a shot (because I'm tight, good trainers cost a fortune! Lol)x

Try the vibram five fingers

I over pronate and get plantar fasciatis

Tried minimalist shoes a couple of years ago and just didn't suit my gait.

But give it a go

I've got a great pair of Vibrams.

But wouldn't go totally barefoot.

I've bought a pair of vibrant five fingers, but can't type the name on here without giggling!

You need to have a phyio , osteopath or podiatrist check your feet first. Going from running in trainers ( often with some mild heel ) to bare feet can be problematic x

I can remember Zola Budd doing it, but I can't recall if she ever won much.

They say it's the best thing to do - as long as the ground is nice and smooth and has no lego blocks on it or anything - you'll be fine!

I cant be assed to google it, but this has been debunked and proven to cause more damage than normal running shoes.

I used to but only on the track/field where hazards are less likely

Both for and against seem quite passionate, and both sides dismiss the others findings, hence wondering what people's actual experiences are, as I filled my head too much googling!

Rely on independent research results. Not on anecdotal stories or 'research' from self interested parties.

I looked at it out of curiosity once. It's not for me though keeping feet covered less of the time generally may be a good thing for many.

If you are going to run barefoot, do it on sand. It will be safer for your feet and a better workout for you
