Running. Since I am not doing any until my ligaments heal, I've been obsessing about it. I miss it. So, I've been researching. Dr. Romanov of The Pose Technique talks about the running style of the ancient athletes and barefoot running. Odd, right? Who runs barefoot? I live in New York City. Dude, I can't be running down Fifth Avenue in bare feet. I can't even run around my apartment in bare feet. Meanwhile, a part of me is thinking — how long have feet been around? As opposed to running shoes? Maybe there is something to this.
So, I Google. I find an article by Greg Downey entitled Lose your shoes: Is barefoot better? If you are a runner, read it. I promise you, this is good stuff. I am sold and next month, I am going to try it out. When in Florida, I love running on the beach. I am ditching my shoes and will give this barefoot running thing a try. After all, it's natural, and if you know me, I'm all about that.
