Let running return to the body, and fall in love with running again – The VFF Barefoot Running Camp 2013 is back with even more exciting HeyRobics and natural running training, comprehensive core strength and diverse terrain workouts, personalized running form guidance, and a star-studded coaching lineup including Polar and Linus, plus abundant gear and prizes. VFF is set to reignite the barefoot running craze.
"Born to Run" opens with the concept of "Good actions leave no tracks," revealing the true essence of natural and effortless running. The book depicts a simple, minimalist way of life—unrestricted, lightweight, living in the moment, with basic eating habits, authenticity, and low-stress living. This minimalist lifestyle will guide us to become travelers who understand how to explore the joy of life.
The direction of a minimalist lifestyle is simplicity, clarity, and singularity. However, reaching this state is not easy. In addition to requiring a gradual approach, barefoot running also demands more time for the body to adapt than we might expect—even seasoned runners may find a few months insufficient. Therefore, most people should be cautious, preferring a conservative approach over rushing in, as the latter may lead to harm before any benefit is gained.
To this end, Vibram, the world’s leading pioneer in barefoot movement, will continue to host the Born to Run VFF Barefoot Running Camp in 2013, recruiting runners interested in barefoot running for intensive training. The five-week core curriculum of the Born to Run VFF Barefoot Running Camp includes theoretical sessions on the principles of barefoot running and the culture of "Born to Run." It also teaches participants a wide range of training methods, such as proprioceptive training, basic foot strengthening exercises, foundational and intermediate barefoot running techniques, indoor CrossFit core muscle training, and cadence training. Fun short-distance trial runs will also be held to assess training progress.
Each barefoot runner has unique characteristics, and their running styles may vary slightly. Therefore, the Born to Run VFF Barefoot Running Camp teaches all barefoot running enthusiasts common fundamental training methods and approaches. Participants must experiment to find what works best for them. Listen to your body. Your feet are your best teachers—they convey crucial information to your brain, which then sends signals to your muscles to help your body achieve the most efficient and fluid gait possible. Barefoot running is about feeling, not thinking.
