Clean Sweep for the 30 Somethings in Bikilas

Andy and company recently ran in the Walla Walla Crush 5K in their recently acquired Vibram Five Fingers Bikilas. Here is what Andy had to say about their effort:

Several weeks ago I purchased a pair of Bikilas and have enjoyed doing recreational running in them.  During the last couple months both of my brothers and one of my friends have also been focused on transitioning over to minimalist running in VFFs.  None of us had run in an organized event in our VFFs until this past weekend when all four of us decided to run in the Walla Walla Crush 5K in our Bikilas.  I was pleased to place first in my age bracket, winning a bottle of wine from one of the wineries that helped sponsor the race.  Finishing right behind me were my friend and one of my brothers, placing second and third in our age bracket.  Not a bad performance for a group of novice Five Fingers runners during their first organized race in Bikilas!  Included are photos of the four of us in our Bikilas after the race and of me with my prize bottle of wine.  Next weekend I am running a 10K in my Bikilas...

Great performance, congratulations on all of your successes in making the transition to Five Fingers and doing so well in the race!
