I got some for Xmas as well and am going to take them to the gym tonight. No running yet (working back into it with a 5k goal for March) but I'll be getting there soon.
So on Christmas I got a pair of Vibrams Bikila LS's, and have been wearing them around for a week to break them in before I took to working out with them. Today was the test! I ran my weekly sprint(on the treadmill because its kinda nasty outside), and proceeded to lift weights(an upper body day though). I will have to say that I am super impressed with how it felt to run in those. After a few minutes of warmup and about 10 minutes of alternating sprint/walking I had no shin splints, sore joints, or anything...and actually was bounding with energy. I am sold! Not just on the Vibrams, but TPB in general!
Starting Weight - 280lbs
Current - 237lbs
Goal - Around 200lbs(will be focusing on the mirror and not the scale then)
Working hard to make a healthier and more active me.
