  1.  @Chipwhitley274  Humans evolved to run far on grass, not to run fast on concrete.

  2. Cushioned running shoes make injuries of the ankle more likely. But yeah, it's probably better to wear shoes when running on concrete in order to spare your knees.

  3. I did a bunch of barefoot running. The problem is that it's not so good for your knees. Cushioned shoes on the other hand are not so good for your ankles.

  4. Depends on the injury. Knee? -> More cushioning. Ankle? -> Less cushioning.

  5. Running on concrete with little cushioning is bad for the knees, yes. That's why those cushioned running shoes were developed. Those, however, can easily lead to injuries of the ankle (as I had to find out myself). So I guess it's best to pick a shoe with just a little cushioning or run through the forest rather than on concrete.

  6. Of course that happens when you go from never going barefoot to pushing a car barefoot.

  7.  @AnimeOverdose1  Obviously humans were not designed at all, but they are naturally very good at running marathons. What other animal can run for that long, especially in a warm climate?

  8. Was this entire conversation just about what ought to be called "walking" and what "running"?
