I'm just a 46 year old woman who wants to stay in shape and feel good and age well. I'm not a marathoner. I'm not a triathlete. I'm just a mom. But I love to run and workout. Not that it's always fun while I'm doing it, but I love the feeling of success after I finish. Some days it's just pure will-power to finish my run or do that lunge or push-up, but at 46, I think I am doing really well. I don't know if 45 was a good time to start barefooting it, but I was having back and knee problems and ran across the book, "Born to Run," and was inspired. So I am blogging my journey of barefoot running. Thanks for taking a look. I hope it inspires and helps someone else along the way.

Low-back pain

I have to add--my low-back pain (the kind that wakes me up at night) has been so minimal since I started BAREFOOTing it that I have to LINK the two together.

I was having LOW-BACK PAIN enough that I wondered what to do about it. Also, my HIP PAIN in the joint of my hip and leg is so much better as well.

So it may be part FORM CHANGE and part BAREFOOT. I don't know. But I do know it's better.

FYI...:)
