Running Barefoot

There’s been a heightened fascination with barefoot running after the release of of the story Born to Run written by Chris McDougal. The writer embellishes the story of the indigneous group in a rual community in Mexico which jog non-stop and do not use running shoes. Within other parts of Born to Run the writer launches an attack on the running shoe firms using a lot of misquoting and misunderstanding involving exactly what he perceives will be anti- running shoe investigation. Born to Run is extensively accepted by those invoved with the jogging without running shoes groups as the fact. The issue is that the study does not really say what McDougal interprets it as saying.
