i'm probably slower in minimalists - but i'm slow in general ;)
as far as wear and tear - i have been good so far
i actually switched over after developing runners knee
of course i read 'born to run' and the whole movement was taking off etc
they're not for everyone thats for sure
and i had some plantars issues a few years ago too (strassburg socks helped big time with that)
but to me - the best thing about them is the 'road feel' -love that feeling of running on the road and feeling every nook and crannie of the road
as for wear and tear issues - i also think the best thing i did was really to get cross training
i do run, weights, paddleboard, bike, skateboard, core work
just try to move the body and if possible get outside to do it each day
the five fingers have several models - lots of variety - i have road, trail, water models
i even wear minimlist at work too (vivobarefoot dharmas)
great forum / site for such discussion is birthdayshoes.com

there are a few dozen in the gallery section check them out if you havent already

i have merrell vapor gloves model - very minimalist - love em
but for running i have been using five fingers for about 5 years i think
cant picture using anything else
woukd love to go total barefoot - especially for a marathon
but it takes a lot of work to get yourself to that point
fartherest i have done on the road total BF was 10 miles
and lets just say i paid harshly for that one

The only tattoos that don't get much appreciation around here are bad ones.
eh some of us like those too
- sighthound, Guero, KBeee and 1 other
- 4

i hope you dont mind me saying i like both!
-
cool cool
yeah and i mean i'm not saying go seek out poorly executed tattoos
but sometimes i hate to see those old sloppy quirky tattoos getting covered
-
gotcha - hey good luck in picking out a good cover idea - go big or go home!
-
whoa - what happened here
my man took his pics and left - or was he banned
didnt like the come see me comment towards another member
line crossing

i'm certainly a fan of bad tattoos - in some cases the more the better
now - few things - i'm not into offensive art which is obviously pretty subjective
and i hesitate to give example of where my lines are on that issue
but i like the fun weird cool poorly executed stuff - i just do
i do think they look better on heavily tattooed people
also it helps to have a healthy amount of well executed work
anyway
-
i vote for leave it and start getting cool stuff elsewhere
its a memory and some are good and some are bad
my tattoos represent both though most wouldnt guess it
anyway - good luck in either case and welcome

Even though i've been going to the gym, i haven't been able to run.
I decided to go jogging for the first time in August and my hips have been feeling sore on and off ever since. I just decided to re-order Krill Oil in hopes that maybe it can bring down inflammation, which my doctor says is what i have. Since I never really took off from working out, i never gave it time to heal. So i'm taking the next week or so off and start taking the Krill Oil vitamins in hopes this damn soreness would go away. UGH frustration /rant
did you ever try minimalist shoes - vibram five fingers - most people think it would exacerbate an issue but i found it to be quite the opposite - of course a lbreak will do you right also
-
awesome additions
i dig that 2nd grouping as well
those first shots just nail that feel of fun cool weird
love the black and grey stuff
anyway - it resonated with me
bet you have some cool feelings looking at them and reminiscing
-
badass collection! totally into all of it
-
good discussions folks as most always on here
i do spend some time thinking about topics like this
why do i get tattooed - why do i get what i get - what does it mean
more and more though i have become comfortable with the following conclusion
i feel compelled to get tattooed and i dont really know why and...i kinda like that
edit: i would like to add that if none of what i wrote makes sense i'm blaming the cranberry sauce
