《The Barefoot Running Book: The Art and Science of Barefoot and Minimalist Shoe Running》简介:

For readers of Born to Run by Christopher McDougall, The Barefoot Running Book lends practical advice on the minimalist running phenomenon

Ditch those cushiony running shoes—they’re holding you back and hurting your feet!

You’ve heard about barefoot running and how it can reduce injury and allow for better form. Maybe you’ve even tried it and learned how shedding those heavy, overly- manufactured shoes can make running more enjoyable. Regardless of your expertise level, Jason Robillard—a leading expert on barefoot running education and director of the Barefoot Running University—synthesizes the latest research to ease you from barefoot walking to slow running to competitive and trail running vis-à-vis simple drills, training plans, and useful hints from fellow barefoot runners.

Practical, easy-to-follow, and illustrated with black-and-white photographs throughout, The Barefoot Running Book shows how everyone can transition to barefoot and minimalist shoe running—safely and optimally.

《The Barefoot Running Book: The Art and Science of Barefoot and Minimalist Shoe Running》读者评论:

Ever since Born to Run, the barefoot craze has been growing with more and more people trying to capitalize on the barefoot/minimalist market. Author Jason Robillard was one of the very few who were teaching and practicing barefoot running long before it became popular. His passion for this topic is genuine, and he has years of experience. While many barefoot runners stick to easy surfaces, Jason has run on technical trails, and even run barefoot ultra marathon distances. He has explored the full spectrum of barefoot running and pushed his feet to the limit. I don't know anyone better suited to write this book.

 

Wow, I'm quite surprised at the number of good reviews for this short book. The main reason that I dislike this book is that I find it to be a bit condescending towards people that have question of cutting your feet on rocks, glass, etc. he smarmy response is something along the lines of "I use these devices that help me detect those obstacles. I call them 'eyes'." (Again I'll look up the exact quote later,)

So, he claims to be an am basso for barefoot running but says this smart Alec response to a (quite natural) question. One could certainly respond with. "That's nice, I choose to use these devices that allow me to look farther than the immediate ten feet in front of me. I call them shoes."

There's also very little substance in this book. I found it to be disappointing. I do run with minimal or reduced shoes and didn't find much of use other than to increase mileage slowly. The last part of the book was basically filler where he discussed his race report from an ultra he did while wearing Vibrams.
