walking digitigrade stance

7 months since my last journal entry... meh, i hardly use this at all >_> oh well
well, yeah, i've been walking digitigrade stance (in real life) for at least half a year now, barefoot mostly (when i can). and once you get used to it its not bad, kinda fun actually since you can get around much more quietly (its fun to sneak up on people ;) ), as for going barefoot, it has its benefits too such as tougher feet (i could probably go across gravel or rough ground with little to no trouble now), and (much) better traction when running.
about the biggest downside i can think of relates to walking/running digitigrade stance fulltime, after you first start walking this way it will make your knees/legs hurt a lot until your used to it (i couldn't hardly walk without my legs hurting after the first couple of weeks) but keep trying and it really pays off,and stops hurting ;).
