20k RACE SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED IN VIBRAM'S FIVE FINGER KSO

ALBUQUERQUE, NM/ PTPRESS/ -- In 2007 Pose Certified Triathlon and Running technique Coach Ed Bugarin ran the Honolulu Marathon in 3:31:49 wearing... Crocs. Yes, you read it right - the popular Crocs (check them out). Recently, another Pose Coach, Jason Hoy, ran a 20k race wearing Vibram's Five Finger KSO pair. Just 2 examples of the many happening now.

Contrary to a popular belief imposed on unsuspecting public by the shoe companies that running without injuries requires an improvement in cushioning and support in running shoes, in reality running requires improvement of skill, i.e. improvement of technique, the way one runs. Ah, all that research and money used to make people believe they are weak and not capable of running without injuries... unless they spend some serious cash.

It's not about shoes - it's about how you run.
