An interview with Bison
#22
^
Doubt it. If you run barefoot or even midfoot with minimalist shoes I'd argue that you're less likely to develop knee, hip, and arch problems. We don't run everywhere and most normal people will still wear boots with good arch support during a normal workday. Running isn't an all day activity for most people trying to stay in shape. The benefits of running midfoot though will (should?) outweigh the possible negatives of running heel strike even with proper shoes.

I do wear boots and run midfoot and don't have problems stemming from either. This is after years of wearing sneakers and running heel strike. Both have also helped with the arthritis in my ankle.
