…Yeah, the holidays are rolling in and we’re busy, plus inspiration has been nil.
On the bright side, we’ve got one incoming guest post and one collaboration. So that’ll be like ice cream with *sprinkles*.

LabRat-
Was looking through some old posts and found where you had got some Vibrams 5 fingers and gave a 1 month follow up. Do you still have / like them and did you continue to run / workout with them? I need some new gym shoes and am tossing back and forth from these or the typical sneaker.
I appreciate the update and the blog, hope you and Stingray have a great Christmas and New Years.

Yup, still have them, still use them, still love them. When I’m not just plain barefoot for a workout, that’s what I use.
I’m wearing them less for non-exercise purposes these days, but that’s because there’s snow on the ground.

I’ll even double down. After ages of only referring to them as “hippy-feet,” she got me to try ‘em. And I’ll be getting another pair when I wear these out.

Wow, how can I dispute double Nerd approval. All that’s missing is the “Law Dog Paw of Approval” stamp. Thanks again for the updates on these. I’ve not seen very many negative things written on these and all the new info that says how great barefoot running and training is, but I wondered how much was just the “new hippy crunchy bs” that gets flung about the net. While I haven’t had the pleasure of meeting y’all in person, I have been reading your site and am a regular VC listener and fell confident you both are about as polar opposite from “crunchy hippy” as it gets.
Again, have a wonderful holiday and thanks for all the info.
