Running in My Boxer Briefs
- reidmain 15y agoGreat story Jason. I just started running in my Vibram Five Fingers July of last year and I just reached my goal of 5km in 24 minutes. I found that Runkeeper really helped with my motivation because I could see the smallest improvements.
- jasonshen 15y agoNice time and great job hitting your goal reidman! VFF and Runkeeper are two of the three things that have gotten me into running. The last being the need to push myself. Great stuff.
- reidmain 15y agoYeah there is that wall inside that you gotta break down. I'm in Canada so when Winter hit I stopped running but something inside just eventually clicked and I went out and started running in the snow.
- blackboxxx 15y agoI've had nightmares about showing up in public places without my pants on, and it actually happened to you! The photos are proof! Inspiring story Jason. Inspiring because I know from previous posts you had a terrible knee injury, and inspiring because I feel like taking up running now. I guess I owe you thanks!
- jasonshen 15y agoHey blackboxx - when you face the nightmare, it's no longer so scary! =P I'm lucky to live in San Francisco, where much more scandalous activity happens and the sight of a guy running in his boxer briefs is not a big deal. If you want some motivation to run, try reading _Born to Run_ by Chris McDougall. I'm almost done. Every chapter just makes you want to leave the house and start running. It's great.
- blackboxxx 15y agoI'm going to look for the book at the library. If I can't find it there, I'll buy it. Thanks again Jason!
- hsmyers 15y agoI'd love to try the Vibrams, but is so far as I know they don't come in size 13 :)
