Good day all you fellow barefoot whackos!!
On August 29, I completed my first Sprint Distance Triathlon. Went for a 750m swim, 20k bike and then a 5k run, which, as my shiney new photo shows...I ran barefoot.
The race was in Cobourg, Ontario and it was one of the funnest things I've ever done.
Of course, I was the only barefoot whacko in the field of 177, so while, technically I was 126th out of the 177, I did finish first in the barefoot category.
I also won the award for the blackest feet across the finish line.
Yippeeee!!!!
I got lots of ooo's and ahhhh's from the spectators and fellow competitors....all were curious and friendly!
I would highly recommend a triathlon of any distance to you bunch of barefoot whackos.
You can swim barefoot too!!
