Podcast Recommendation: Sliced Bread on barefoot shoes

[MissUnderstanding]

I listened to this yesterday after my long run. Sliced Bread (in case you’re not familiar with it) takes products with a lot of hype around them and investigates to see if they’re the best thing since sliced bread or marketing BS. This episode is all about barefoot shoes.

I know we’ve got some barefoot fans and barefoot-curious posters here so I thought I’d flag it up as a really interesting listen.

Thanks to Sax64 for mentioning it over on Couch which reminded me to share!

I've yet to listen to a podcast while running, maybe I'll try that next

I love a podcast run. I’ve found they don’t work so well with guided runs because you end up with two people talking at once! I’ve fallen into a pattern of a speed and long run from NRC with music and one run with podcast where I can just do that as a chilled, time on feet run. Not having a coach at all really helps get me in the right mindset that it’s a just for fun run so pace is irrelevant. It’s working well for me at the moment!

Think I'll find one for this morning's run, which might not happen, might be a walk instead today

It’s a favourite of mine too! I was listening to the Toast variant on Friends Reunited today while I was stuck in a jam on the way back from work!
