Bulldog Trail Runs Bans Toed Running Shoes

Heads up if you were planning to run the 2012 Bulldog 50K or 25K in toed running shoes. The following new rule is specified on the Bulldog Race Rules page:

“Barefoot sports shoes or toed running shoes will not be permitted to be worn at the Bulldog Trail Runs; no exceptions!”

Last year the U.S. Army banned toe shoes because of “lack of conformity with the Army’s conservative professional appearance.”
