From High Heels to Rehab

From High Heels to Rehab

by Emily Gindle on Feb 06, 2011 7

Rehabilitation was today’s theme at work. All day long, it seemed, people were looking to Fivefingers as a way to fix something going on with them. It started with me offering advice to a guy who was trying on Fivefingers to add to his new fitness regimen: he was doing P-90X at home and wanted […]

Rob Lowe’s character took all of his shoes to the building’s shoeshiner to be cleaned, but the shoeshiner had no idea what to […]

by Tyler Hurst on Jan 31, 2011 6

I get a lot of questions every time I wear my Five Fingers, which is every single day. Inquiries about their comfortableness, ability to handle extreme weather and how long it takes to break them in are oft repeated, so here’s a list of the top questions and my answers.

Cozy Smartwool Classics

by Emily Gindle on Jan 28, 2011 1

These certainly aren’t brand spankin’ new, but has anyone checked out the Smartwool Classics? My two favorite companies have combined forces to make this cozy, comfortable shoe: a Classic sole with a Smartwool ballerina-cut toe sock inside. I haven’t had them long enough to start destroying them yet, but they’ve done something really smart to […]

Well, I did it. A scant six-ish weeks of training, but I completed my third 13.1-mile trek in my Sprint Five Fingers. My score wasn’t spectacular at 2:20, but how I feel just two short days after tells me everything I need to know. I’m ready to get serious now. The little parts that always […]

Half marathon prep

by Tyler Hurst on Jan 16, 2011 5

I never feel like I’m ready. Whether I ran a 10-miler ten days ago (I did, in just under 1:40) or finished a 10k a few days ago (also did, in just under :58), I can’t shake the feeling I could have done more. More lifting, more sprints and helluva lot more long runs to […]
