I came across a lecture by Dr. Irene Davis on Pete Larson’s Runblogger the other day and thought I’d share it here. Pete has a great blog with copious amounts of information of all things running. The lecture is presented in a series of videos on youtube where Dr. Davis explains with great eloquence the current data in the field supporting barefoot running. I’ve been asked by several people why I run barefoot. Ultimately, it’s because the arguments for barefoot running just made sense. As I started reading and researching, the science behind it supported the common sense I found in the many arguments in favor of barefoot running. Enjoy the lecture!
