just a new guy saying hi to the forum. i'm a missionary / development worker in rural tanzania, where i've lived for the past 2 1/2 years. i've been running barefoot and/or in minimalist shoes since february 2010. the running's great here... mountains and national forest just a half-mile from my house and goat trails galore.
i also enjoy coffee, triathlons, soccer, rock climbing, and bacon. especially bacon.
Welcome James! The place you live there sounds wonderful! Hopefully in the not-too-distant future, I will be in a similar location...
