So I know there are a lot of QBN'ers who run in marathons and just for fun to exercise.
I was wondering if anyone has done or likes barefoot running? People say it is much healthier for your feet but im not really sure I could run around on the ground outside with my feet bare.
Anyone know anyone or have done it themselves?

People say they like to do it there neighborhoods (I would assume not city) or at there local track like the ones that are cushy

Obiously not for city running, but if you've fields, beaches or clean plains, it's the best way to go once your soles have toughened up. So much springier and natural - the thought of impacting on to heels fills me woth horror now.
