Amazing! I've seen runners from Africa run barefoot and having run myself in earlier times, I just find it incredible! I was doing good to fun with shoes on! Thanks for a beautiful photo!
I am also a barefoot-girl, as soon as the weather allows me I kick off my shoes to feel sand, gras and gravel under my feet. But I don't run much though... =o)
Wow! can't believe that anyone can run such a long distance barefoot. Its amazing to see that people take on such challenges even when the market is flooded with best of shoe brands.
And look at those muscled legs! Barefoot people have healthier feet than shod people. I live in sandals and rarely wear closed shoes here in Hawaii... Nice picture! Aloha & Namaste
How amazing. Excellent photo esp. with the buildings in the background modern and ancient traditions meeting point. I also like the yellow stripes on the barrier and the runner's trunks.
Made me think of Zola Budd, who competed in athletics, without shoes. She competed in the Olympic Games many years ago. Makes the runningshoeproducers with all their theories about which shoe for which foot and the right amount of bounce and so forth, look a bit suspicious. Are they really considering our feet or just their sales? Oh well, I can't imagine running barefoot. Great photo!
I just love to free me feet from shoes and stockings, but I like to wear sandals. There might be small stones and other things that hurts. I agree with Angela - His feet must be like leather :)
Hmm. The way my shoes hurt me at times, I could be tempted to revert to shoelessness! Fine as long as there's no glass or anything around. A different choice for B.
I'm also here on behalf of the ABC Team to thank you for posting.
What a great capture and what freedom he has not to be bound by mere shoes. If I could I would run around with no shoes on my feet all day, one of the reasons I enjoy going to the beach when I have the rare opportunity. Your photos are wonderful.
Your blog keeps getting better and better! Your older articles are not as good as newer ones you have a lot more creativity and originality now keep it up!

ReplyDeleteI think it's interesting that some African runners run barefoot. How more natural can it be?
ReplyDeleteI am also a barefoot-girl, as soon as the weather allows me I kick off my shoes to feel sand, gras and gravel under my feet. But I don't run much though... =o)
ReplyDeleteMan, his feet must be like pig iron! I can't even imagine 26.2 miles on pavement barefoot.
ReplyDeleteCome to think of it, I can't imagine running 26.2 miles... period!
I love being barefoot but I can't imagine running that far - shod or not. A great photo - just great!!
ReplyDeleteRunning a marathon barefoot is amazing. If very many people do this, they should have a separate trophy for the fastest barefoot marathoner.
ReplyDeleteA photo which speaks itself!

ReplyDeleteLaudable connect with the B alphabet.
Oh my! I hope he didn't stub any toes!
ReplyDeleteI love the color in this picture. Astonishing to think of running that far barefoot.
ReplyDeleteAnd look at those muscled legs!

The spirit is what counts not the shoes...
ReplyDeletenice capture !!

ReplyDeletebon choix et toujours bravo pour les courageux coureurs.
ReplyDeletegood choice and always bravo to the brave riders.
My feet just hurt by looking at him.
ReplyDeleteas i school boy i always prefered playing sports bare footed, it was much later in college days that sports shoe became part of sporting action.
ReplyDeleteThat was nice catch sir as always...
Regards
He doesn´t worry about small stones and glass. I wish I could do that too.
ReplyDeleteYou are putting all you Marathon images to good use. I cannot imagine doing this, especially in barefoot. Great catch in full flow.

Hi!
ReplyDeleteGreat "B"! I don't think I could do that! He must have really tough feet! Have a great day!!
Sherrie
wow ! one must be very accustomed to running barefeet ...
ReplyDeletewow barefoot. i would have thought it impossible to run a marathon barefoot. great photo.
ReplyDeletewonderful pix boss
ReplyDeleteNice shot and great use of the letter "B"!
ReplyDeleteThis is amazing! Also great choice and photo!
ReplyDeletePerfect choice of color matching!!
ReplyDeleteA marathon barefoot never seen that!
It's impossible to imagine how he could run barefooted on the road in the heat. His feet must be like leather..
ReplyDeleteI just love to free me feet from shoes and stockings, but I like to wear sandals. There might be small stones and other things that hurts. I agree with Angela - His feet must be like leather :)
ReplyDeleteBarefoot and running! Nice action photo.
ReplyDeleteHe must have very tough feet!
ReplyDeleteBut we grow the protection that our feet need, don't we? If we pumice off the hard skin and always wear shoes, our feet are bound to be soft!
Hmm. The way my shoes hurt me at times, I could be tempted to revert to shoelessness! Fine as long as there's no glass or anything around.
ReplyDeleteA different choice for B.
I'm also here on behalf of the ABC Team to thank you for posting.
I bet he had sore feet!
ReplyDeletewow! that is hard to imagine, yet this man seems like he is running effortlessly.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great capture and what freedom he has not to be bound by mere shoes. If I could I would run around with no shoes on my feet all day, one of the reasons I enjoy going to the beach when I have the rare opportunity. Your photos are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteMy Australian grandchildren always walk barefoot. See my the header of my blog. Their footsoles are like iron indeed.
ReplyDeleteI run a lot and my feet get more tired than my legs - can't imagine running barefoot.
ReplyDeletePS - you reminded me about ABC Weds so have to put something up there too!
