[QUOTE="Jones, post: 832360, member: 4805"] Barefoot running drills on grass are a good way to work on your form, but this whole "barefoot running" craze that's going on right now is just a fad. You don't need vibrams to work on your form, just relax your feet and keep your footstrike under your hips, that will prevent you from heel striking. Don't worry about consciously trying to run up on your forefoot, most elite runners are midfoot strikers anyway. If it's not a natural thing for you you're just going to get injured by forcing yourself to do it. Top two finishers at Boston. Note the midfoot strike. Perfect form.
