Running just isn't "fun" to me. I like my mountain bike much more. That said, I need to get back at it. I was getting decent results before I slacked off over the winter. I have friends who prefer the running thing, and sure, you don't need a lot of expensive equipment. Well, I might... but it'd be rehab equipment after I turn a knee or ankle trying to run. ![]()

Just look for minimalist shoes, they existed long before the toe crap. Nike Free and Merrells are big.

Merrells are even made with vibram soles. I wear Merrells all the time, but they aren't minimalist. Good shoes though. They are just everyday shoes, not exercise ones.
I started wearing them because they were the only decent all leather tennis shoe I liked. That was the requirement for nuke for the engineers. Just had to be all leather, didn't have to be a work boot or they had to buy them for us, lol.

They actually made minimalist shoes with the vibram soles specifically for running or running trails. Check out the link I posted. I think they are really nice looking, well some of the colors anyway. |

Gina, I wear socks in my vibrams. When I ran in mine, I had to make sure to run on grass rather than pavement or my shins hated me.

I think all merrells are made with vibrams. I don't remember seeing a pair that wasn't.
