How cool you got people talking in Miami! You probably started a wave of interest. I'd even call you a barefoot TSUNAMI, ha. You should post any type of article at the end of that stream of posts on facebook and title it "For anyone interested in Barefooting" so they can understand it more, if they don't already. All they know is that there is hype about it - many don't know Why it's so great. They need to know! Everyone who commented on the facebook page will get an update saying you posted this article, so i can almost guarantee they'll all visit it. Here's an example of one you could post: http://www.wwd.com/footwear-news/will-the-next-shoe-revolution-be-barefoot-2442894//?full=true
Curt of Playmakers is actually quoted in this article too, and I have others that may have more depth of information in them to share. But this is a good article, you could even call it pretty, and people will enjoy reading and it gets to the point fast. Also, feel free to throw out Goodformrunning.com for a place for anyone wanting to learn good form running. There's a really helpful quick video too, which you've seen. It's an ugly video for now - and someday i'll help Curt redo it ha. But it definitely touches on all the points of how to run.
Glad to hear a lot of barefooting is going on! Also glad my posts could inspire. That's why I post.
p.s. i love your idea of going on a run with so many people who are from different walks of life who don't bring their bull shit to the trail. i think that in general runners are a better type of person ha, enjoyable to be around, no drama. on the contrary to this idea though, is this: one thing i love about social running is being able to chat with the person next to you while you go. makes the run go by faster and its nice to switch it up from the occasional monotony of solo runs where you are thinking of other things. it's a very wholesome way to bond (when ordinarily i think people just bond over getting drunk together the bar for the first time).
