I ran cross country in high school and I just ran barefoot around the neighborhood. I'd run 10 miles barefoot sometimes. I had Vibrams but didn't like em as much.

The great thing about running barefoot is that you can feel the ground under your feet. It makes it much more interesting to run and less boring.

I HATE wearing shoes, but I don't think I could ever bring myself to run barefoot in New York. I don't know what it is about barefoot running that is so stimulating -- maybe it's the simple exercise of avoiding constant danger? -- but wearing shoes certainly dampens the thrill.
Haha avoiding danger definitely makes it more interesting... or when you step on an acorn!
