<p>Hey KR peeps! I'm back from my hiatus! It's official - I'm now a minimalist runner!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Started running barefoot at Easter, and tried my new Branca running sandals this morning. Love, love, LOVE them! It is so amazing to run without knee pain - I cannot tell you how thrilled I am!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Been going really slow. Didn't even run but a few times after my marathon on New Year's Day. Now I'm wanting to run every day!</p>
<p> </p>

<p> </p>
<p>The soles are navy, laces are red/white/blue. I really like that you can pick the colors of the soles and laces. I should have spent more time being careful with how I cut the sole to fit my foot, but I was too excited about getting out to try them. Will have to watch where the lace comes out over my right big toe - rubs a little there but no blister today. Otherwise, just feels great! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Now I'm gonna mop the floor. Ew.</p>
