Only a week away, and each second seems to be moving faster than the other. Normally I don’t get over-excited about marathons, being more a longer distance type of runner, but for this last week of training the Oakland Marathon stands as my final prize in my barefoot running quest.

Last year at the 24 hour run in Wakefield, Massachusetts we caught up with Dr Betty Holsden-Smith; a 70 year old woman who has run over 1,000 miles in her VIVOBAREFOOT Evos.

This year she is set to race in an ultramarathon! She is an amazingly inspirational woman.
Thank you Dr Betty.
