Pregnant Runner Loves Her Vibram Five Fingers KSOs

As you can see from the picture above, there aren't many things that keep Josephine from going out on her daily run in <a href="/a> KSOs. Pregnancy and snow didn't stop her. Here is Josephine's amazing story:

I'm almost 5 months pregnant with twin boys and run daily in my KSO's in Providence, RI. I have had them for over a year and have run in them in every season and in every weather condition that hits the East coast from blizzards, to rain storms, to oppressive heat. I am madly in love with them! I also can't say enough good things about them for running while pregnant. I have had no injuries or problems with them and don't have the "leaden feet" feeling that I remember sometimes having when I ran during my first pregnancy. I also ran daily during that pregnancy up until the day I went into labor and I don't remember feeling as light on my feet as I do now in my VFF KSO's- even with twins. They are awesome! I was a die-hard fan before I got pregnant this time and now am even more so. I definitely did not have an easy go of early pregnancy with lots of all day nausea (and puking!) due to the double dose of hormones you get with twins (which BTW, were a complete surprise and not at all what this runner, or her husband, had "planned"!!!), and running is the one thing that has kept me sane and gotten me through these initial months- running in my KSO's that is! I recommend them to all pregnant women out there and to all runners, pregnant or not!

Thanks so much!

Josephine

Thank you Josephine! Congratulations on the twins! We wish you all the best and hope to see some barefoot baby pics.
