After a "short" impasse, I have returned to my Barefoot experience idea an so, I am writing again in this blog.
I have brought a pair of Xero Shoes that I have wanted for years and now they are my official "at home" shoes and I have started running in them short distances.
After a few days walking around with them I did my first run, just 3 KM. I was a little concerned about having the correct form and landing correctly but I believe it is something that comes naturally.
My main recommendation when starting is to do distances that you can handle easily, because when you start to feel tired it is more probable to "drag" your foot in the road or hit something. I tried running in aquashoes/watershoes (too heavy, too hot) in the past, and one of the problems I had was that with just a small distraction you can tear/rip/scrape them, and when you are tired, you are prone to distractions.
