I gave up shoes in 2009 when I started walking, running and, well, living barefoot or in Xero Shoes. Soon after that I gave up sitting, too. Okay, not gave up… but I got so sick of being planted in a chair all day that I throw away the chair, propped up my desk, and […]

Sound familiar, barefoot runners? I emailed him in advance of his […]

As a barefoot runner I’ve heard lots about huaraches but it wasn’t until Steven made me my first pair (I have two) that I understood how much fun they are to run distances in!Scott McLean
