Innostuin paljasjalkajuoksusta vuosien 2006 tiet\u00e4mill\u00e4 kirjoittaessani Juoksija-lehteen jutun amerikkalaisesta “Barefoot Bobista”, josta oli tulossa rapakon takana kulttihenkil\u00f6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Testailin tuolloin my\u00f6s muutamia paljasjalkakenki\u00e4, mutta en saanut niihin oikein tatsia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Juoksin jokaisena kes\u00e4n\u00e4 Espoon keskuspuiston metsien suojassa olevalla niityll\u00e4 ilman kenki\u00e4. Ja muutaman kerran my\u00f6s asvaltilla, joka ei todellakaan ollut hyv\u00e4 idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jalat tulivat tosi kipeiksi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Annoin polkujuoksukengille uuden mahdollisuuden saadessani niit\u00e4 sponsoriltani Merrellilt\u00e4<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Otin ne aluksi k\u00e4ytt\u00f6\u00f6n salikenkin\u00e4, sen j\u00e4lkeen aloin k\u00e4vell\u00e4 ja my\u00f6hemmin juosta ne jalassa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Viimeksi t\u00e4n\u00e4\u00e4n aamulla, kun l\u00e4hdin juoksemaan Nuuksion mets\u00e4poluille. Minulla on Merrellin ns. nolla-droppi talvijuoksukeng\u00e4t, jotka oli minun jalassa mm. Vatnaj\u00f6kull-j\u00e4\u00e4tik\u00f6ll\u00e4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jalat kannattaa totuttaa paljasjalkakenkiin ihan hissukseen. Niiss\u00e4 kun ei juurikaan ole vaimennuksia, joten jalka joutuu normaalia(sanan mukaisesti) kovemmalle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n *******************************************************************************************************<\/p>\n\n\n\n I got excited about barefoot running around 2006, when I was writing an article for Juoksija<\/em> magazine about the American \u201cBarefoot Bob,\u201d who was becoming something of a cult figure on the other side of the Atlantic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the time, I also tested a few pairs of barefoot shoes, but I never quite got the feel for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Every summer, I ran barefoot in a meadow sheltered by the forests of Espoo Central Park. A few times I also ran on asphalt, which was definitely not a good idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n My feet became really sore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I gave trail running shoes another chance when I received them from my sponsor, Merrell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At first I used them as gym shoes, then I started walking in them, and later running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As recently as this morning, I went for a run on the forest trails of Nuuksio. I have Merrell\u2019s so-called zero-drop winter running shoes, which I wore, among other places, on the Vatnaj\u00f6kull glacier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s worth getting your feet used to barefoot shoes very gradually. They offer very little cushioning, so your feet are subjected to significantly more stress than usual\u2014quite literally.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Innostuin paljasjalkajuoksusta vuosien 2006 tiet\u00e4mill\u00e4 kirjoittaessani Juoksija-lehteen jutun amerikkalaisesta “Barefoot Bobista”, josta oli tulossa rapakon takana kulttihenkil\u00f6.
