There was a bloke wearing these standing behind me as we lined up at the start of the London Marathon. He was getting quite a lot of attention for his 'gorilla feet' but he said he'd run a couple of marathons in them. They take some getting used to, he said, because they force you to run on the balls of your feet, as opposed to slamming down the heel.
