Running in FiveFingers

Posted by amy in News

I started running in my Vibram FiveFingers last week in SF (note the Bridge & Alcatraz in the background).  I did two 20 minute runs and my calves were sore for DAYS! I ran again today and did 3 miles on the treadmill. It was rough, my calves were a bit sore, but mostly I was just out of air.  It is amazing to think that exactly a year ago, I ran a marathon!  I haven’t had any knee pain so far, which I think is a combination of the Vibrams and the physical therapy. I’m not sure I’ll make the 1/2 marathon in mid- November, but I hope I’m finally on the road to being back in shape.
