Same baby, new feet! Why would anybody want to cover these up with shoes is beyond me...

Introducing Barefoot Baby, aka Fiona Natalie!!! She was born at 5:53am on Saturday, February 12th, and she is amazing.
Though only two days old, she is already in training for her first barefoot 5k, and I have already taught her the proper pull technique for the Pose Method of running. Merrell, the outdoor/sporty shoe company, recently came out with a line of minimalist "barefoot" shoes that actually look pretty cool. Priced at $110, they're a bit pricey, but they have style and aren't as crazy looking as Vibram Five Fingers.
Along with the launch of the new sneakers, they created a website with introductory barefoot running lessons. While none of the four videos mention Pose specifically, they certainly do use most of the of the Pose running principles, especially the "Good Form" clip, which mentions good posture, minimum 180 steps per minute cadence, and leaning from the ankles. The site is definitely worth a look, and if you're interested in proper running form, either barefoot or in minimalist sneakers like Merrell's new "Glove" line, sign up for a Pose running lesson with me! |
