Born to run

Went out and blew S$209 on a vibram shoe. I had stopped running for more than two years after I felt I pulled my knee after a particularly exhaustive schedule of running, badminton and more badminton. Just before I stopped, I was running really well and enjoying my weekly exercise with my colleagues.

What changed for me today was reading the book Born to Run, and I identified with the author's notion that ad human beings we were designed to run, which was what our prehistoric ancestors had to do to hunt animals. It was the natural thing to do. What was unnatural and causing all our injuries was actually the heavily cushioned running shoes that modern technology gives us. In fact according to the book, the better the shoe, the more dangerous it is.
