Did my first proper race in my baregrips this week. The 5.2 miles of the Jack Bloor. I really like them as a shoe, the course was fast and dry with some tight bends in the tracks and they performed really well. The biggest compliment is that I didn’t even think about them once during the race, which for a new shoe is very unusual. No problems with my calves afterwards, (plenty of stretching since the 3 peaks), so now to try something a little longer. Waiting to get a pair of Roclite 285s soon, which is the least cushioned of the trail shoes.
