Story

My very first barefoot ROAD marathon. Last year, 1998, I ran my first barefoot TRAIL marathon, knocking about half-an-hour off my best marathon time of 5:05 – with shoes in 1987. Today I knocked an additional half-hour off that first barefoot marathon (which was on mountain trails).

It was so much fun, and I didn’t even get my shoes wet!
