Vibram


Here it is, Vibram Five Fingers. A kind of shoe that is formed like your foot.

It reminds me of those socks that you can use except this one is heavly reinforced with extra rubber underneath so that you dont die running on gravel or a stick or such.

I am basiclly going to use it for running. But the usage areas are wide, climbing and so on are popular, i think im going to use it for playing badminton aswell.

It costed about 1000 kronors and when i came home from the Krav last night i tried them out, ran about 400 meters around the block and i could feel the difference at once.

Instead of landing on your heel like you do with your basic running shoe, you have to land on the front of your foot, the damping is controlled by the calfes, knees and foot at the same time and you get a different kind of stability and workout this way, its going all natural.

When i came home i could feel the pump in the calfs and it was a nice feeling, love my calfs i must say.

Anyway, then it was foodtime, roastbeef, potatosallad, bread and a big serving of bigos (a sort of polish coleslaw meal that my mother makes, its wonderfull) and then i was off to bed.
When i work early i feel more gasy than when i work late, i think its because i go to bed so near the eatingperiod.

Tonight its more Krav Maga followed by more food. Its a short week this week, easter comming up and all, going to eat so much egg that my eyes pop out!
