I run in vibrams on all surfaces.

60k a week or so, pushing 40y/o

I got back into running lately, hurt my knee and had to take a break, using the very cushioned Hoka Clifton 8.

I think I increased mileage too quickly, but this video makes me think it might be the shoes since before my running hiatus, I used to cover more ground with very flexible Nike Freeruns and was fine although my feet hurt more. Probably only 10k/week back then though.

Right now taking a break because the outside of one of my knees clicks when I bend it.

Any specific vibram model recommendation for sidewalk/hard surfaces?

I run in the v-runs

Just start low mileage be get used to always being on front of your feet, when I started in vibrams I could run my normal distance once but then my legs were DEAD

I’d recommend a 1 miler to start just to see, you know … the tip. Just to see how it feels
