Almost everyone in the barefoot running community has
heard of Michael Sandler. He has shared his inspiring story with us through his
book, Barefoot Running (published by his company RunBare) and his
whirlwind running clinic tours over the past few years. Today, Michael and
Jessica released a trailer for their upcoming movie on barefoot running. That’s
right. Barefoot Running, the movie.
To be clear, this is not a movie for the cinema. It is
not a documentary of the barefooting movement (we’re still waiting for that).
It is primarily an instructional “how-to” film, though Michael and Jessica do
spend quite some time simply celebrating barefoot freedom.
Several barefoot running enthusiasts have already
produced short video clips, both humorous and instructional, but what RunBare has
coming out this Fall is on a whole new level. Their DVD is a full-length,
professional quality film, as entertaining as it is educational. I have had the
pleasure of previewing several chapters and the quality of the film is
spectacular. It is exactly as they describe: “Seventy minutes, 17 chapters
filled with amazing running, scenery, and entertaining lessons about barefoot
running.” The film is stunning for no other reason than the running footage
through the breathtaking Maui scenery and the National Geographic quality music.
Seriously, the folks at RunBare have outdone themselves with this one!
Catch the trailer here, and then be sure to get the
full-length film in August.
