Are We Built to Run Barefoot? Check out this New York Times article on this latest craze.

I just purchased a pair of New Balance Minimus Trail Running shoes for Crossfit training.  I love them but can totally identify with this article.  I only run short distances (1 mile or less) in my training and have had to definitely be more conscious of my running form. It is recommended to take it easy at first, so your body (mostly feet and calves) get used to the difference. However, I find them great for all other aspects of my Crossfit training (weight lifting, box jumps, pull ups, squats, etc.)
