Blog like a Champion

I searched far and wide for a “shoe” that is made of sustainable materials, not made by kids that should be in school and manufactured in this hemisphere. What I found was a movement to rediscover the way we were created to walk and run across God’s green earth. At 205 lbs minimalist running is a little scary for me at this point, especially since I am sooooo flat-footed, but I always enjoyed running barefoot both in high school and college and so I’d like to make the effort to cross over with the help of the RunAmoc (By the way, the people at Soft Star Shoes have many things going for them, check this link). I know it will take some time to transition to this minimal running shoe, but I will try to report from time to time on my progress. My goal one day would be to run a 24 hour or 100  mile race in them. Maybe I’ll just start with a mile or so.
