That settles it, I am going to have to try the barefoot run this week. I have yet to come across a bad overall experience by anyone who has run barefoot or used the Five Fingers or the Nike Free. I wonder if returning to lightweight running shoes after a period of barefoot running would help to improve form at all.
BTW - Light review and photo comparison of the Vibram and Nike here: http://skylertanner.com/2009/05/17/nike-free-vs-vibram-five-fingers-barefoot-supremacy/ http://skylertanner.com/2009/05/17/nike-free-vs-vibram-five-... for anyone interested.

- ApolloRising 17y agoI've been using the Nike Free 3 Series sneakers for the past 2 months or so and have noticed greatly reduced lower back pain. My feet were sore for about 2 weeks while I adjusted to the shoes but after that, I feel that they were a great purchase. They are much lighter than the average sneaker and every time I put on my dress shoes it feels like I have lead weights attached. The Vibram "shoes" would get a lot more attention but the Nike will get the job done. I should have bought more than 1 pair since they are incredibly hard to find now in certain sizes.
