International Barefoot Running Day™ (IBRD™)
The Barefoot Runners Society (BRS) is proud to announce the 2nd annual International Barefoot Running Day™ (IBRD™) on 6 May 2012.
After our smashing success last year, we hope to double the turnout this year. IBRD™ is a grassroots, inclusive effort to promote barefoot running as a healthy and viable way to run. It’s also about having some fun and enjoying the idea of running barefoot with thousands of people worldwide on the same day.
