3 months with FiveFingers, 300 km route running and walking another 200. I started off with an adaptation to the 5 km race gradually increasing the mileage.
Last week I drove the first 22 km race in a row.
These gloves are pretty much intact after running these distances. The only part of the tie rods are worn a little side serving to adhere the shoe to the foot. For the rest material, apparently weak, it has proved resistant even to countless washings. Vibram soles have proven to be very good. After 500 km still seem new and I ran and walked on all types of terrain.
sensations and changes.
are still adapting. Practically run barefoot over cobblestones where I live, gravel and earth is really hard. Land on sharp stones, running is painful. The foot on the other hand is coming on strong. The arc is most prominent. I have also noticed a greater neuromuscular control of the foot, greater agility and proprioception.
The toes have a more expanded spacing which is reporting a little at a time the foot to its natural shape and an inverted triangle that is not straight like shoes and condition. I had no problem with muscle and joint fact, only improvements. The ankles are stronger as well as throughout the entire leg muscles. The movement has taken a stride more relaxed and spontaneous and I have gained more power in the climbs.
The next goals are to run longer distances to 22 km on any soil type and level.
After these months of testing I can recommend these shoes minimalist people who plan to walk or run completely free and natural.
