Barefoot Running for Triathletes clinic and book signing
Barefoot Ken Bob Saxton and Roy M. Wallack
co-authors of “Barefoot Running Step by Step.”
Barefoot running is the hottest fitness trend right now, and the top-selling book on the subject is "Barefoot Running Step by Step" by barefoot guru Ken Bob Saxton and Los Angeles Times fitness columnist Roy M. Wallack. During their presentation, Ken Bob, a veteran of 77 barefoot marathons and subject of dozens of articles in Runner’s World, the New York and L.A. Times, and other publications, and Roy, a veteran of the Badwater Ultramarathon and a longtime former editor at Triathlete magazine, will explain why barefoot running is the "next step" for runners and triathletes looking to both reduce injuries and increase speed. They will take you on a brief barefoot run; explain why barefooting can eliminate recurrent running injuries and add decades to a running career; outline the basics of safe, effective barefoot form; unveil new research showing that barefooting can almost completely eliminate impact; and explain why useage of Vibrams and minimalist shoes can be made more effective when you develop proper barefoot form first
The fun and fast-paced multi-media show will explain why proper barefoot-style running as taught by Ken Bob offers key advantages over other shock-reducing methods well-known to triathletes such as the Pose Method and ChiRunning, and will present research showing that making even as little as 10% of your total running time barefoot can strengthen feet, improve form, and improve speed. and provide proof that even just a few minutes of barefooting a week can make you a faster runner — in shoes.
