Barefoot on Super Rugged Terrain

Posted on April 5, 2010 by

What an incredible day to go for a barefoot run. I took a few pictures and have a video to share.

When my son saw the edit he said that it looked like you were walking. What the video does not do very well is show how steep the terrain is. As I was finishing my run I smacked my big toe on a piece of lava rock – which would explain the blood at the end of the video. Running in this kind of terrain demands focus. Holding a camera off to one side is just enough to get hurt. LOL!

      I was off trail, but where I was running links directly into the Temple Quarry turn around.
