it's two and a half months since my last barefoot post, and whilst it has been a busy time, i have done next to no running.
i have tried a few therapies, including massage and physiotherapy, but the biggest improvements have been from just resting my feet, combined with toe scrunching to help build up the strength in my arches.
so - day-today there is now no pain in my heels, and i can run across a road if i need to.
doesn't sound like much but it beats limping everywhere all the time.
and when i do run (across the road), i make sure to fore-foot strike and keep my feet loose and alive.
i have also been walking barefoot outside a little. being exposed to texture and temperature again feels great.
i hope to start running barefoot again in the new year.
and of course i have my son's feet to inspire me now, and i want to be a good example.
