Then the last 1000. Then the last quarter mile and so on. Some prefer to start completely over, but that is not feasible for high-mileage runners.

I'm so excited about starting to go barefoot... and also a bit freaked out. Not so much about the blisters or stepping on a sharp object, but mostly about my own impatience. Currently reading Barefoot Running and just want to get out there and try it already! Question.. the book says to, of course, start slowly and with short runs. Is it ok to do that and then pop on the shoes and 'finish' the run? Or, should I try barefooting only, then do a shod run the next day. Thanks! This is great!
