I had to say that this run was different compared to others. I haven’t really even ran is a long time. It has been since February since I really ran anything. I put on the Bikilas. It is good that they were kinda already broken in. I wear my other Vibrams KSO very often especially on the weekends. These Vibram Bikilas are a lot different than the KSO. They have a thicker material on the top and the stretch of the material is thicker than the KSOs.
I started off with a moderate pace considering I haven’t run in a long time and that my achilles tendon was bothering me. I think about 2 months ago, I hurt it chasing around one of my friends sons. I regret it now. I was almost sprinting and I think I might have pulled it a little bit. Anyhow, the run started off slow. I think I was going about a 12 minute pace or so in the beginning. I was trying to get a feel for the Bikilas. I knew that I would be hitting the front part of my foot first and then the heel would go down. I think I was compensating on my left side a little for the pain in my achilles didn’t really let up till I was about 1 mile into the run.
I would run .20 miles then walk about .05 miles. I ended up going a little bit over 2 miles in distance and had a great feel for the shoes and how my legs would adapt to the different running style. Prior to my running in the Bikilas, my shoes ranged from Asics, New Balance and Nike. I was a heel striker and tried to change it up to a mid foot striker but it seemed much more difficult. These new Vibrams will help me in strengthening my feet and also correcting my running form. I am looking forward to the next run as I will probably increase the distance by a little.
