Indeed between managing a family and horses, everything

The study conducted suggested barefoot running is better than running with shoes because runners who run barefoot generally use a FFS, reducing the pain and pressure of the foot when it collides with the ground.

The Evolution of Footwear: Before the running shoe, humans mostly ran barefoot; however, some ran in sandals or moccasins if such luxury was available (Lieberman). Running barefoot allowed humans to develop stronger feet, and a much lower tendency to develop knee injuries (McDougall 56).

For Barefoot Week, myself and a small group of other students voluntarily forsake shoes from Monday to Friday in early fall.

I was inspired to sign up for Barefoot Week because I often enjoy walking barefoot during the summer.
This was a very troubling yet inspiring documentary. I can’t fathom 27,000 people, five to ten years old, parentless and just walking, BAREFOOT. These poor kids look so hungry, I’ve never seen legs so skinny. However, it brought me comfort knowing the boys formed makeshift families to take care of one another. And it’s pretty remarkable to hear that 11 year olds were capable of taking care of the young (not like they had a choice). I found the bond within their society beautiful. I was disturbed
Should you shoe your horses or leave them barefoot? What is better for the horse? What will benefit the horse more? Although it’s a hot topic, it has never really been an issue to me. I have always shod my horses in the summer when I know we will be using them a lot and always leave the shoes off in the winter. I ride with a lot of people that will never use shoes or will sometimes only use a pair on either the front or back. Each person has their own beliefs and reasons behind why they choose to
