Mine are heavy and pretty hard soled on the inside. Probably need some comfort soles, gellin like a felon, but they are pretty much like walking barefoot on concrete with weights strapped to the top of them.

If they ever go on sale I would but I have to stop buying shoes. Especially since I might be house poor soon.

Technically you'll be house rich...and debt rich.

I have gone to the Merrill's. I tried them because on my husband's encouragement. (and, I've learned that when a man wants to buy you shoes you smile and say yes) my husband hates the vibrams.

I love the Merrill's. And, I got tired of all the mouth breathers telling me how the have my shoes.

I've been doing a run/walk program for a little while now. I'm only running at about an 8 minute/mile pace in the running portions, though. Doing about 2.6 miles over a 30 minute period. Today's program was walk 5 minutes, run 10, walk 5, run 5, walk 5. I haven't been doing this consistently and some weeks I take more days off between runs than others. But I suppose it's better than sitting on my ass all the time.

Thats a decent pace... I have to work at it a bit to maintain it myself.

Friday I went to the gym and did an arm workout, plus I did a leg workout. Then lost my mind and went to Citadel Hill and did some hill sprints and a short run along the base of the hill. It was great that they cut the grass just that day and I have allergies. So doing the three sprints up the hill, after a leg workout and with the fresh cut grass, I was proud of my effort.

BTW I wore my Fivefingers to Costco and Walmart yesterday.
