During the trail run last week, I saw 4-5 people complete the run in the Vibram five-toe shoe/slippers/whatever the hell they are called. Amazingly stupid looking. But, the more runners I talk to, the more I'm convinced that landing on one's heel while jogging is very unhealthy.
I've said it before, but if you haven't read the book "Born to Run", go get a copy. It will totally change the way you think about running.
