"Let's run together! Wanna come? Me? I'll do Running Barefoot. Let's go!"
Running Barefoot? Here's what's the latest news about the technology in running or covering a marathon from HitABargain.
Vibram FiveFingers® is a concept unlike any other, an unrivaled alternative to conventional footwear. Its patented design mirrors the flex points and silhouette of your foot to propel your body forward and promote a more natural gait.
This is the first and the only footwear to offer the exhilarating freedom of going barefoot with the protection and sure-footed grip of a Vibram® sole. Vibram FiveFingers® footwear acts like a second skin to shield your feet from hot surfaces and rugged terrain. At the same time, it liberates your body to move in a healthy, more natural way.
The benefits of running barefoot have long been supported by scientific research, coaches, and athletes who believe that a gradual system of training barefoot will strengthen muscles in the feet and lower legs, leading to better running form and improved injury resistance. However, running completely barefoot also exposes you to elements and obstacles that can cause injury. Running in Vibram FiveFingers® enables you to reap the rewards of running barefoot while reducing those risks.
Benefits of barefoot running
1. Stronger muscles in the legs and feet – since FiveFIngers mimics the sensation of being barefoot, wearing it allows you to exercise, stretch, relax and strengthen muscles you normally don’t get to use when wearing rubber shoes or leathers shoes. This makes it perfect for pre-game / pre-race training.
2. Barefoot running also corrects the way we run – making you land on the balls of your feet / mid-foot – as compared to wearing rubber shoes which give us the tendency to land on our heels first. Landing on the heels of our feet releases more pressure/shock to our legs/knees and slows us down.
3. For those who already have their special running shoe, Fivefingers is also perfect for post-race/post-activity since it can relax and stretch our feet after running or being enclosed inside a shoe – ITS LIKE GIVING OUR FEET A VACATION!
