Thanks for your replies,

ive heard of Ken Bob before, read a little bit about him on a forum somewhere.

Im excited to think i could be doing a marathon in minimalist footwhere. In a few years time once ive perfected the technique i would like to complete a cross country marathon with no footwear, perhaps just a silicone sleeve which inov-8 do or something to protect from sharps.

Thanks for the information im sure it will prove very useful indeed!

I went for a short run today trying to mid strike and it went ok although my legs are still tired from the race on saturday.

There are shoes which will help you transition from heel-striking to mid-foot. If you wear large padded stability shoes you will find it much harder to mid foot strike due to the size of the heel on the shoe. A shoe such as the Brooks Pure Cadence which has a low heel and less "padding" will encourage you and make it a more natural feeling to mid foot strike.

I am no expert but its what im doing right now after having knee pain wearing stabilty trainers and thought i would try it myself. I agree with ratzer and think you should read more on barefoot running techniques.
