Summary

Enhanced running-naturally. For 30 years runners have been told that their only hope of salvation from injury is an expensive shoe-until now. The barefoot running and minimalist-footwear revolution is here and it is turning the world of running upside down. • Offers expert advice on how to run barefoot and strengthen atrophied muscles and revitalize super-sensitive soles • A Harvard University study made from early 2010 shows that barefoot running is better for the body and feet than running in expensive shoes
