Mike took off his shoes and dropped them into the nearest trash can."Then I started running.At first I went really slowly because I was watching out for rocks or other things that could hurt my feet,but there really weren't any problems."He started going faster."It felt so good!"Mike said."My knee,which always ached,didn't ache.My foot was able to spread out so I had better balance.And my feet didn't feel all hot and sweaty.It was awesome!"
"There are actually potential health benefits to running barefoot,"said Dr.Nancy Bower,a podiatrist(足科医师).
A recent study agrees.A team of researchers recently videotaped several people running-first wearing shoes and then barefoot.In almost every case,when wearing shoes,the runners tended to land on the heel of their foot,which they call"heelstriking."Many runners have impact injuries such as knee pain.Heelstriking may be the cause of these injuries or may make an existing injury worse.
When running barefoot,the runners tended to land on the middle part of the foot.The force is spread out throughout the foot.The ankle,shin(胫部),knee and hip don't get the shock of a hard landing with every step.
