The above photos were sent in from a (well-named) new VFFer named Justin.

Here are some pics from a 10 mile hike I did on the Fiery Gizzard Trail (South Cumberland State Park) in Monteagle, Tennessee back on August 15th.

I had just received my Five Finger Sprints the day before in the mail, so this was my first adventure in them 🙂

Absolutely loved it!

They definitely came in handy when we were jumping off waterfalls and had to climb back up.

Some of the rocks and roots along the trail weren’t too friendly, but it was worth it!

Not only was Justin jumping off waterfalls in his VFF Sprints, he also was “jumping right in” to the VFF lifestyle — a 10 mile hike after just receiving your fivefingers could really put your not-yet-adapted feet to the test! Glad you are already getting such great use out of your new Sprints (and I hope you didn’t have too much soreness after your VFF trial-by-fire)!
