Hi, barefoot running enthusiasts!

I am writing to you on behalf of the Latvian Barefoot Running Society. I found your forum on the Internet during the search of likeminded people in Europe that would be interested to get connected with us, barefoot runners from Latvia.

This August we are organizing the Second Baltic Barefoot Ultramarathon along the Latvian coastline of the Baltic Sea and we would like to invite you and your barefoot running friends to take part in it. The course is very scenery as it is held in Kurzeme – one of the most beautiful regions of Latvia. We offer three race distances – 11 km, 32 km and 53 km. The date is 30th August, 2014. The race is very suitable for barefoot running having nice sandy beaches with no pebbles or other obstacles.

The cheapest registration is open till the end of May. Full information about the race is available in English in the race homepage - http://www.bbultramarathon.com/?page_id=7. You can watch a video of last year’s race in the `Home/News` section.

The barefoot and minimalist running movement is quite new in Latvia, so we would be honoured to share our barefoot racing experience with you, our colleagues from Europe. If you can’t make it to participate yourselves, we would be grateful, if you could promote this event by informing barefoot runners in your area that might be interested (or maybe even shod runners, since running barefoot is not mandatory in this race :)).

Looking forward to hear from you soon,
Edgars Rencis,
founder of the Latvian Barefoot Running Society
