dude, thats nice!! where did u get the material for soles?

Thanks for your support. My friend father own a shoe factory, so I can get soles from him. Normally they will not sell to other. This is because of they need to protect their shoe Industry. smile.gif

this is crazy! i'm staring at these for dunno how many minutes!  notworthy.gif btw did it slip between foor and sole during wet? normal one i know not slip.

For this leather version I still not test yet, I mean the slip question. But for previous PVC version confirm no have any slip problem plus it is super duper fast get dry when it get wet. Will keep update here again when I test it. thumbup.gif

Wanted to find you guys but couldn't see any of you, anyway lucky the weather was on our side. It almost rained, but didn't.

This is my virgin 21km run / second event run. Compared to Nike, this event is way better organized.

Unfortunately my leg was not fully recovered. So I end up run limping most of my way and walked a lot. Timing was 3:15:19 (GPS). Not satisfied at all, but I enjoyed it anyhow. It was a good experience. I noticed some of the roads are slanting. Makes me feel not balance.

I'm also amazed by the support I got from the runners, patting my back and encouraging me to move on. It motivates me and no way I'm going to take ambulance back...

The reward, my first medal  rclxms.gif earned through sweat and pain  nod.gif

I'll try to take a week off from complete running exercises and wait till I heal completely. Hope by the time Penang run I'll be ready...

Yo, man. Seriously you are awesome!!! thumbup.gif Is great to hear that you got finish the run!! When I saw you run in limping I`m worry about you, but you still keep going on!! This is great!! Never give up, this is our life!! Remember must take a recover before your next run.

By the way, my finish time also very slow at 2:45 hours (Distance show from my Endomondo App is 21.91KM). This is my 2nd HM with my leather version Huaraches. Honestly to tell that the leather strap is not suitable to use for huaraches, because it will stretch, It cause my almost jatuh twice when I run in 15 - 16km. I will try using the new poly rope to replace this leather strap and try in next run.

But the feeling is really great, feel very freedom in running. At the end I saw some of lyn runner with their special running lyn T. Hope I can purchase 1, thumbup.gif

Congratulation to all of you who are finish the run!! notworthy.gif

Thanks. Will take good rest. Next run will be 2 weeks later (Live Great Run).

You really like a Huaraches guy doing R&D, Modify, Test Run.  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif  Some more berani test run in 21km  sweat.gif

Yes, brother. I really love the Minimalist Running with Huaraches, so I would like to share this to all of the runners. But before that I need to test kaw kaw about my Huaraches quality. I also surprise I can finish it with my 2nd half marathon. Same thinking like you, never give up before hit to finish line!!!

Unfortunately, the next run I will go CICM Responsible Care Run. Is the same date as you run Great Eastern, so we cannot run at same place. sweat.gif Hope to see you again at Terry Fox Run 11/11/2012. blush.gif
