Founders of NYC Barefoot Runners, John and Maggie Durant, have turned their fun run and cabaret of barefoot running education into an annual event – doubling in size from the 1st Annual NYC Barefoot Run. Their ultimate goal was to bring together all of the “who’s who” in barefoot running and create a celebratory atmosphere full of education; with all ideas welcomed to allow participants to test each theory for themselves. We couldn’t resist getting involved for the second year in a row so we brought our team, including our newly certified Barefoot Coaches and barefoot running expert Lee Saxby. Read more…

Thank you to everyone who entered our competition for a Free Coaching Session with Lee Saxby at the upcoming New York City Barefoot Run. Whilst we would very much like to help everyone and offer all our entrees a session with Lee, we are limited for time over the weekend, so we can only select nine winners. Read more…

UPDATE: The Winners have been announced.

Are you an injured runner or struggling to grasp the barefoot technique? And are you running this year’s NYC Barefoot Run on the 24-25th September?
