Hi Jack,

I remember reading about your Nike Free shoes on your blog. In fact, that was the main motivation for me to research minimalist shoes and buy the Clouds. I have found that I’ve been able to recover quickly as well and am upping the distance on each run. So far I am loving the new shoes!

I switched to minimalist running shoes (Nike Free Run) over two years ago, and have seen a dramatic reduction in the pain I used to feel, and recovery time is reduced to overnight. I’m running four or five times a week, a bit over 4 miles per run, and so far (knock wood) no serious injury nor pain.

I’m going to check out these On Cloud shoes to see if I like them – I hate that Nike keeps changing their styles every year or two. Just when I find shoes which are comfortable they change them, and when I wrote Nike and asked them why they do that, their response was “We have to stay up on current trends and innovations.” Nice marketing spin, but unless I want to buy five pairs at a time, I’m stuck having to live with different “innovations” every year or so.

Congrats on all your running, and hope I see you soon Barron.
