Doug Brandt, Founder of Dayton Barefoot Runners, Shares Thoughts on Barefoot Running.
While Doug ran for fun growing up and even ditched his shoes on occasion, his real passion was chemistry, starting in grade school and continuing though high school and college. It was over 20 years after obtaining his Ph.D. in biochemistry, however, that he again took up shod running as a form of regular exercise. Within 2 years his knees were feeling the pain from improper gait and he was lead to barefoot running as a solution. Now, nearly 7 years into running with foot bare, Doug, aka Dayton Barefoot Runner, enjoys helping others learn how to run with better form. He founded the Dayton Barefoot Runners in 2011 to assist in this effort. In turn, the DBRs support a yearly run to benefit research to understand and cure Multiple Systems Atrophy. If you are ever around the Dayton bike paths or trails you might see Doug running. He generally is not training for a race, he just enjoys running, putting bare sole to pavement, and feeling the pleasure of his Creator.

ALOHA and Thank You Doug for taking time to film this, and for all you do to help others. I love to run, especially LSD #39;s, Long Slow ...From:Randy KreillViews:88 2ratingsTime:14:19More inEducation
