Technology to wean you off of Technology


If you haven't read "Born to Run", I highly recommend it.
Part of it examines/questions the whole basis of running shoes.
It explains how the foot is a dynamic and interactive system that
REQUIRES stress to work, and by wearing shoes, the cushioning
actually prohibits the foot's (feet's) natural ability to adjust
your stride for efficient movement.

Enter Vibram five finger shoes, originally designed for yachting, but has become the poster child for barefoot running.

Santa, can you send me a pair?
