although i've resisted the urge for several months now, i finally caved this weekend and bought a pair of vibram five fingers. the hardest part about trying them on was forcing my pinky toe into the tiny pocket set aside for that seemingly useless toe, but other than that, they were fairly easy to get on. having your toes separated feels a bit funny at first, but it's actually kind of fun and it's supposed to be much better for your body anatomically. i went on my first run this morning with them (4 miles) and it was awesome. at first i felt like i was running in aqua socks, but soon enough i realized that i felt much swifter in the five fingers than i ever have in my traditional running shoes. i'm not sure how i'll feel after 10, 15, or 20 miles, but if this 4 mile run was any indication, i'll feel great. have any of you tried running in vibram five fingers?
