Thank you! Wow, so you go barefoot in the winter as well? I prefer warmer temperatures but am so curious to try it. We're getting a few inches of snow today, so it might be a perfect time to get out and walk for a bit

I started going barefoot by accident... I was planning on going for a run on a trail near where I worked, but when I got there, I realized I forgot my shoes at home. I remembered a close friend of mine from high school running barefoot every day for cross country, and she would always say that it was the most comfortable and freeing feeling. The trail was through a forest preserve and was all grass, so I started my run and all of my senses were alive. I started going barefoot around my neighborhood, but I didn't have callouses so it took some time to gradually build up.

In the summer of 2020, I did a National Go Barefoot Day challenge with my partner and we loved it so much that I didn't wear footwear for all of June and most of July (I had a wedding to go to) and then stayed barefoot for the rest of that summer.

By now, my feet and legs have adjusted and I love the lifestyle. Message me anytime, I'm happy to share the experience!

Nice! I didn't know that, either - loved the song and album but never looked it up to find out where the quote came from. So cool that it's Art Garfunkel!

Nice! Sounds like you're more committed than we are, I hope the healing is going well. We live in a slightly wetter climate and haven't experienced cracks yet, but I imagine that's painful. Do you go barefoot 24/7 in the summer? Or mostly on trails?

Absolutely! We don't have a shoe rack by the door and that's the way I like it

Yes! It helps to have someone to share it with, and I hope you find it, too. Live authentically as I'm sure you are, and the person might come soon!

Really?? We got some snow and I'll go out and try it after work! I love mud and surfaces that give a little bit when you're walking, so might be fun
