Shanna and Kelly's Vineyard 5K in Vibram Five Fingers Sprints

Nice Vibrams! And nice post-race refreshments, too!

I received the above photos from Shanna and Kelly (each sporting Five Finger Sprints) taken after Saturday's Vineyard Run in Grapevine Texas.

Here's what Shanna had to say about the race (And her VFFs):

My friend Kelly and I ran a 5k race at Delaney Vineyards in Grapevine Texas on Saturday! We started running together when Kelly realized she LOVED to run and we've been doing 5ks together since. We make a great team! The Vineyard 5k was our first race in the Vibrams and we couldn't have been more pleased with their performance since we shaved over two and half minutes off last month's time!! We like to think it was due to the Vibrams tendencies toward complete and total awesomeness! In the one picture where you can actually see us, we had just finished the 5k and were enjoying the wine tasting afterwards to celebrate! The second one clearly shows our Vibrams and our choice of wine - mine is a 2007 Sauvignon Blanc, Kelly's is a 2005 Delaney Estate Merlot. This was without a doubt the best race we've run, both in time and in spirits!

Great to hear you both had such a fun and "spirited" race. Post-race wine tasting? Talk about complete and total awesomeness! Looks like it was a pristine day for a race, too.

Thanks for sharing, Shanna and Kelly!
