A few years ago, I was your typical office-worker: stressed out, uneven energy, overweight, and inconsistent complexion. Now I'm just your typical 28-year old urban hunter-gatherer on a quest to be healthy, and having a few adventures along the way. See my full bio.
Daniel Howell, one of our special guests at the NYC Barefoot Run and author of The Barefoot Book: 50 Great Reasons to Kick-off Your Shoes, has been getting some national news coverage. Here's a short piece in the Washington Post (which got picked up by The Drudge Report) and below is his interview on MSNBC. If you're interested in why going barefoot more often might be good for you, even if you don't run, then have a listen. Shoes are a tool -- nothing more, nothing less. Congrats, Daniel!
And Jason Robillard writes a nice recap of the NYC Barefoot Run: "A Behind-the-Scenes Look at History in the Making".
