Bare feet freedom.

Hey Waylene! Your feet lookts jutht wike a fwogs!

              
       My Vibrams arrived in the mail yesterday, (yay!) and I have nothing bad to say about them. By now, you're probably wonder why I have taken the outdated 'toe sock' fad to the next level with this bright pink fashion statement, and why are these things so gosh darn ugly. My god daughter had been present for the un-boxing, and I managed to capture her facial expression while she witnessed me walking around like a 'frog'. According to Allison, a frog is what my feet most resembled.

       What are Vibrams, and why did I invest?

       The benefits of running barefoot have long been supported by scientific research. And there is ample evidence that training without shoes allows you to run faster and farther with fewer injuries.

       No footwear comes closer to recreating this natural sensation than Vibram FiveFingers. It allows you to land on your forefoot, directly below your center of gravity, resulting in optimum balance, increased stability, less impact and greater propulsion. Running in FiveFingers delivers sensory feedback that improves agility and equilibrium and allows immediate form correction. In addition it stimulates and strengthens muscles in the feet and lower legs.

      

       In conclusion, I have had the pleasure of going for 2 runs so far in my Vibrams, and I now know what freedom feels like. My toes are feeling the effects of moving in ways that they have never moved before, but all in all, they are difinitely worth it.
