So is it all about going barefoot, or simply about using barefoot training to teach oneself a better form that ultimately transcends footwear choices?
The latter approach is working for me- my miles have been getting faster and I'm recovering quicker from runs (no joint/tendon issues).
Seems to me that the benefits can be achieved by doing 2-3 barefoot runs/week and simply maintaining the form when wearing footwear.
A subjective topic of course…
Thoughts?
