"Vibram five fingers have changed my life! I can run now injury free! In the past i have had a long list of bio machanical injuries which i now believe was the use of motion controlled runner's and othodics. The more i was injured the more shoes and different types of othodics i would try to compat the mounting issues with stress fractures, shin splints, major sprains, and an achillies tear. I spent a fortune on these useless things. Then, around four months ago on a gorgeous sunny day i thought i'd take the runners off and run around an oval barefoot. To my complete suprise the more i did this the better my legs got. All the injuries went and i found that i could run everyday without a problem, but, the oval got very boring, i felt like a goldfish swimming around and around! This is when i jumped on line found the Vibram five fingers! The first day i took my Sprint's on an 8km trail run. I wasn't expecting to go that far as some this run can be quite challenging with some concrete areas. Normally in the old trainers i would be screaming in agony from shin splints, however, i had nothing but that wonderful feeling of well worked muscles! I was incredibly suprised that the lack of cushioning was not an issue running on concrete, my legs felt like little springs, and my whole running gait has changed ( i have a faster leg turn over now). The only criticism is that the Sprint's chaved my heals, i now run in the KSO's with the indinji socks without a problem! :) For the first time in my life i feel that i can now start really training for a marathon, something i never felt would be possible! Vibram Five Fingers have truly unleashed the inner Forrest (ett) Gump in me! ROCK ON VIBRAM'S"
