What do you think your feet would look like?

Like you wasted several hours a day instead of being productive

[#5]
Like any other third worlder who spends their lives wearing flip-flops/slippers/thongs/whatever you want to call them- heavily callused and overall nasty.

Quoted:
I never ran forty miles a day, but as a kid growing up unless I was in school I was ALWAYS barefoot. I did everything outdoors barefoot and after a few months the bottom of my feet were like leather - I could walk over stones, thistles, you name it just like I was wearing shoes.

I went 33 miles in one day with some Nike's, and one pair of socks. My feet looked horrible, and I was running 7mph a day when I decided to try that 33 mile gig.
If you did it barefoot (and you likely couldn't), they'd probably look awful. |

Probably like the feet of the guys talked about here.......
Cpl. Frederic Schiess, NNC: A Zulu regiment can run, *run*, 50 miles and fight a battle at the end of it. Pvt. William Jones: Well, there's daft, it is then. I don't see no sense in running to fight a battle. |

Read Phil Robertson's book some time back. In it he says that he didn't wear shoes for a year (if I remember correctly)...including in the winter...and would go out in the swamps hunting. Kay would have to get a big needle to get thistles, etc. out of his feet.

First fuck that.
I used to go barefoot all summer long, i could put cigarettes out on my feet and not feel it, they really didn't look much different after i washed them. |

I would be focused on the fact that I ran 40 miles and didn't die.

I can currently, in perfect circumstances and perfect shoes, run about 6 miles. So, if I did 40 barefoot, or not barefoot, I would look like any other corpse being carted away by ambulance.
I did do Bonnaroo one year and lost my shoes drunkenly at the hotel the night before. So I walked a few miles a day back and forth from the center area to camp and back a few times a day for like 4 days barefoot. By day 3 it was pretty uncomfortable to walk, to be honest. But yeah, my feet had gotten a little thicker and desensitized. |

Strong, ready for anything. View Quote When I was a kid I ran around bare foot outside half the day, I could run across gravel (not talking smooth pea gravel either) like it was barely there. Sure as shit can't now. And I didn't run anywhere near 40 miles a day, 40 miles is pretty intense. the bottom of your feet would probably feel similar to a dog's paw, you know, like tough leather. |

Rodney Dangerfield:
Doc said I had to loose weight. Told me to walk 4 miles a day for 10 days. 10 days later I call him and say, "Doc, what do I do now, I'm 40 mile from home?" |

Quoted:
Do you even Tarahumara, bro? View Quote I think 40 miles is what they run to get loosened up before the real race. Christopher McDougall's book on those people is a very interesting read for anyone with any interest at all in the idea of ultra-marathoning. His book about the people of Crete? Not so interesting. He tries to make the case that you should be able to do a marathon on 12 ounces of water, or something crazy like that. Picked up Scott Jurek's latest book at the Hasting's GOB sale a few weeks ago. It's supposed to be about him being a vegan, but it's mostly about him winning those crazy races time after time after time. I've never run further than ten miles at once, yet still find the ultra-runners to be very interesting. It doesn't seem human that you might run 40 miles. Or a few times 40. . |
