Just went again. I know I shouldn't have because of what happened last week. But I needed to go. It was fine, I just went for 8 Km in 10 minutes. I could steel feel it, let's say 1 on a scale of 0 (not noticeable) to 10 (unbearable pain). It went slightly up to 3 at the end of the run and after it, I could feel it, not even painful yet, but more noticeable. It is down to 1 now, 20 minutes after the run. Let's see if it gets worst when it cools down. As I say in the title, it is back to OK, not to normal. Meaning I can still feel it, but it is not an issue of concern at the moment.
Important advice to beginner potential barefoot runners: Get use to it on the street first. Get your feet used to it on an even pavement. Then go out in the woods and irregular soil, but get used to it before that. This is the main conclusion I draw from my experience so far.
4 hours after running, cooled down now, it is still there with a 1 on the pain scale, which barely qualifies as noticeable, not painful at all. So the plan is to go running on Friday, in three days, since I will be traveling tomorrow and the next. It should be fine by then. See you then!
