Running can keep you efficiently and durably fit and healthy for free, while enjoying the most natural and rewarding human experience, saving your money and significantly minimizing your carbon footprint.
The good news is that, as every fish can swim, every human can run marathons or practice persistence hunting thanks to our hunter-gatherer heritage.

380 Marathons and 18 Ultramarathons
Dr. Sidy Diallo has run so far in 103 countries of the seven continents 380 marathons and 18 ultramarathons. After completing at 55 his first Marathon in 2010, he ran 6 marathons in 2011, 12 marathons in 2012, 48 marathons in 2013, etc.
After seeing some 40,000 guys and girls running the Chicago Marathon in 2008 and 2009, Dr. Diallo made the right diagnostic: the fact so many people from around the world can run a marathon is the obvious evidence that every human can do a marathon.
Pretending the opposite is unfortunately misleading for both the marathoners who tend to overestimate their “achievements” and those who think that they can’t do a marathon.
As Dr. Sidy Diallo explains in the book Running Barefoot for Human Survival, the marathon is merely an instinctive and unconscious repackaging of persistence hunting by male elites who in 1896 pretended to reinvent the wheel, and despicably banned everyone else—including their mothers, sisters and daughters—from competing with them.

The 2023 Moorea Marathon
Contrary to the widespread belief, thanks to our hunter-gatherer heritage, every human can and should practice persistence hunting or run marathons. Hunter-gatherer tribes developed three million ago the running abilities. They walked and ran long distances for food. Current humans should walk and ran long distances to stay fit and healthy. That’s the message I’m trying to share around the world, and the reason I flew nearly 16,000 km to French Polynesia for the lovely and memorable Moorea Marathon. Find out more.
Bermuda Is the 100th Country for Dr. Diallo
Dr. Sidy Diallo did in his 100th country 4 races—including 2 marathons—in 3 days and earned 4 medals and 2 awards.
His visit to Bermuda was announced by the news website Bernews: “Bermuda Is 100th Country for Barefoot Runner,” and the newspaper The Royal Gazette: “French diplomat, medical doctor, and barefoot runner Sidy Diallo will mark off his 100th country.” Find out more.

Barefoot Running Training Plan
You can easily achieve your adaptation to running 2.0, i.e. truly barefoot running—without any shoes or socks—, much faster than you might expect.
Thanks to this barefoot running training plan, I could at 60 fully adapt to running 2.0 in just four months, so much so that I ran barefoot the whole distance of the 2015 Dublin Marathon without experiencing any pain or injury.

Preserving the Habitability of the Planet
As Dr. Diallo explains in the book Running Barefoot for Human Survival, endurance running is a vital obligation for all humans. Our ancestors regularly practiced for three million years long-distance running to catch quadrupedal animals for food, stay fit and healthy, boost their immune system and get the powerful hormones of happiness—the endorphins. By living in harmony with nature, they ensured their survival and preserved the habitability of our planet.
Contrary to the widespread belief that we “have evolved,” except for a small height gain, a shrinking brain and a morbid increase of body mass, we share the same biology and the same features with previous Homo sapiens’ individuals. This means that most current humans may not need to hunt animals for food, but we still have to run “marathons” to stay fit and healthy, boost our immune system, get the endorphins and return to living in harmony with nature.
Sadly, instead of wisely doing just that, maybe for lack of sufficient information or motivation, many are seeking happiness in costly addictions to food, alcohol, tobacco, drugs, money, power, etc., which increase global warming and keep destroying the habitability of the planet, not to mention the risk of developing chronic diseases, including overweight, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, depression, Alzheimer’s diseases, cancers, vulnerability to pandemics, etc.

No Shoes, No Problems!
Running barefoot prevents pain, injury and fatigue, so much so that doing a marathon looks like a pleasant walk in the park.
When Dr. Sidy Diallo ended up realizing in 2015 that the human body is designed for barefoot locomotion, he switched to barefoot running, completing barefoot in 56 countries a 90 km ultramarathon and 123 marathons, including 15 barefoot marathons in 14 weeks in 2018 and five Marathon Majors: the 2019 Chicago Marathon, the 2019 New York Marathon, the 2021 Berlin Marathon, the 2021 London Marathon and the 2022 Boston Marathon.
Dr. Barefoot, I presume?
Dr. Diallo finishes his barefoot races expectedly without any pain, injury or fatigue, which keeps surprising and puzzling other runners and the public, although there’s no reason for that. In other words, our ancestors ran and walked barefoot for three million years, sneakers are a recent invention, running injuries are on the rise since the 1970s and no other animal species wears shoes.
As Dr. Diallo explains in the book Running Barefoot for Human Survival, the shoes are the problem. This means that many are not only paying for pain, but also incurring the risk of serious injuries that might prevent them from running again, which is what unfortunately happened to Abebe Bikila in 1968 in Mexico. No Shoes, no problems!

Let's Save the Human!
Let’s wake up and act now to save Homo sapiens. The planet is fine.
Long-distance running is a vital activity for past and present humans, not a sport, which means that every human can and should run marathons to stay happy, fit and healthy, and do it barefoot to prevent pain, injuries and fatigue.
Sadly, many of those who think the opposite is true end up developing addictions (to food, tobacco, alcohol, drugs, etc.), overweight, obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, stress, depression, impotence, infertility, dementia or other chronic diseases.
That may be good for a country GDP, but not so for the patients and for the survival of humans. It’s very instructive that Homo sapiens is arguably the only endangered animal species that humans don’t care about.
It’s about time to understand that and act accordingly to “save the human,” instead of talking or holding gatherings about “saving” an over 4.5 billion years old and healthy planet, which will survive Homo sapiens for many billion years.
The purpose of Dr. Sidy Diallo is not only to provide you the information you need, but also to lead by example to help you do the right thing to stay naturally happy, fit and healthy, boost your immune system, enjoy the best quality of life, save money on healthcare and useless or harmful consumption, and “save the human.”
He spells out in the book Running Barefoot for Human Survival why all humans can and should run marathons, and why we should run barefoot. Running Barefoot for Human Survival (French edition: Courir pieds nus pour sauver les humains) is available on Amazon in paperback and e-book format.

The Brutal Resurgence of Cryophobia
Europeans’ phobia of spending the winter 2022–2023 without heating is a harsh reminder, particularly to those who think they “have evolved,” that humans are a tropical species.
As long as heating was guaranteed and the prices of gas and electricity were affordable, barefoot phobia was the only notable symptom of the ancestral cryophobia—the irrational fear of extreme cold. Find out more.

The Basics of Bliss
As Dr. Sidy Diallo explains in the book Running Barefoot for Human Survival, the four elements of human bliss are natural habitat, natural environment, natural physical activity, i.e. long-distance running (persistence hunting or marathon) and natural procreation, which means that billions of humans are born to be depressed because of their location or the consequences of their lifestyle.
For instance, while procreation is possible everywhere on the planet—even though infertility keeps rising, particularly in North America, Western Europe, Australia, etc., whose sterile nationals are increasingly and desperately resorting to artificial procreation or even questionable adoption of babies from other countries—, Homo sapiens’ natural habitat, that many call “tropical paradise,” is limited to the Earth zone extending from the Tropic of Cancer in the north to the Tropic of Capricorn in the south.
Unfortunately, most current humans are lacking many, if not all the elements of human bliss. Find out more.

Four Times Overall Winner
When Dr. Diallo did in October 2010, at 55, his first marathon he still believed in many fallacies that turned the marathon into something runners can wrongly brag about as a special achievement. At least he never “swallowed” the stupid theory of “speed genes,” fabricated by a so-called Danish “scientific study.” Of course, no “study” could identify such genes, but many people still believe in them.
Fortunately, he progressively found out, as he explains in my book, that the human body is designed for long-distance running, i.e. the most primitive and vital human activity, formerly to get food, and now to prevent obesity and other comorbidities, get enough endorphins and boost our immune systems.
As a result, finishing a race possibly pain and injury-free is far more important to me than my ranking. Dr. Sidy Diallo won nonetheless three marathons and one ultramarathon:
The 2015 Torcy International Marathon, France,
The 2015 Southern Cross Marathon, Chile,
The 2015 Punta Arenas Ultramarathon, Chile
The 2016 Philipsburg Waterfront Marathon, Sint Maarten.
Furthermore, Dr. Sidy Diallo placed second overall in two other races: the 2014 Punta Arenas Marathon in Patagonia, Chile, and the 2015 White Continent Ultramarathon in Antarctica.

Planet of the Masked Apes
After nearly 200 millennia of wise, lucid, smart and fairly healthy existence, Homo sapiens has “evolved” into Homo comorbidus.
The physical and mental comorbidization of Homo sapiens started around 10,000 years ago after the invention of agriculture and the domestication of some animals in Mesopotamia. It remained a very slow process, though, until the 1970s when the pandemic of comorbidities gained an unprecedented momentum...

Chronic Diseases Kill 41 Million People
People suffering from these easily preventable diseases are also at greater risk of dying from COVID-19 and losing their physical and cognitive abilities. “Heart disease, diabetes, stroke, lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were responsible for nearly 100 million additional healthy life years lost in 2019 compared to 2000,” according to WHO.
So why do we keep aggravating these comorbidities, instead of preventing and eradicating them by stopping their risk factors (physical inactivity, tobacco, alcohol, excess of food, etc.) now, and by adapting our lifestyle to our biology? —Wake up, Homo sapiens!

But the mentally ill doesn’t know he’s mad...
Stepping Barefoot on Glass
Nelophobia—the irrational fear of glass—is arguably one of the main reasons many people are so reluctant to run or walk barefoot. Well, in an ideal world no one would throw glassy objects, but some do just that, seemingly even more so since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly where the bars are closed because of the restrictions.
While happily running my 90th barefoot marathon in the Paris area, and his face was therefore expressing neither fear nor any pain, a lot of people asked Dr. Diallo the eternal questions barefoot runners have to face in many places around the world: “Don’t your feet hurt? Aren’t you afraid of stepping on broken glass?”
As he explains in the book, Running Barefoot for Human Survival, these questions are the instinctive manifestation of an ancestral barefoot phobia.

Human Body Not Designed for Our Lifestyle
Sadly, while our lifestyle has significantly evolved, our bodies have not. That’s what Harvard professor of anthropology Daniel Lieberman calls “dysevolution,” which is the cause of our current problems, including the unprecedented health crisis.
The Collateral Damage of “Progress”
Smart primitiveness, i.e. long-distance barefoot running, is ironically the effective weapon against the collateral damage of “progress”, including global warming and the preventable chronic diseases.
Lions Know How to Run and Eat
Why do Humans Need Advice for the Same?
Aquatic species know how to swim, and birds how to fly. Chimps know how to climb and how to jump safely from one tree to another, and they know that bananas are better food than potato chips. And like our ancestors, lions know by themselves how to run, what and how to eat. They never need to consult another lion.
So why individuals of the allegedly most intelligent animal species need some gurus to teach them know to run, what and how to eat, or what harmful accessories are better for their feet? And why are the consequences inevitably more running injuries, increasing chronic diseases and rising global warming?
The answer is simple: our intelligence can’t help us, because we’re brainwashed by those who are interested in increasing their power or maximizing their gains.

In the late 1960s film of Mel Stuart, If It's Tuesday, This Must Be Belgium, a group of American tourists went on an 18-day sightseeing tour of 7 European countries. The 2010s’ trend is adding both a physical and mental challenge to this kind of tourism: completing an endurance race in each country visited. On January 29, 2016, we took the challenge to complete 7 marathons in 7 days on 7 Caribbean locations.

The 2015 Bahamas Marathon
I was kindly granted the bib number 100 for my 100th official marathon, which I ran on January 18, 2015 in the Bahamas, exactly 4 years, 3 months and 8 days after my first marathon, completed painfully on October 10, 2010 in Chicago. My 100 marathons were held on the Seven Continents and in over 30 countries.
I have also participated in five ultramarathons in 5 Continents between May 10, 2014 and January 3, 2015. My choice of The Bahamas for my 100th marathon, and the fact I came 2nd in my age group, attracted great interest from the race organizers and local media. If you are looking for wonderful venue for your next winter marathon or half, I’d strongly recommend the Marathon Bahamas and you will surely find out why they love to say: “Running Is… Better In The Bahamas”.

The 2015 Kathmandu Ultra 50 km
For the Asia leg of my Seven Continents Utramarathon Quest, I ran on January 3, 2015 the Kathmandu Ultra 50 km in the Shivapuri National Park, Nepal. It was by the way, as I knowingly expected, my toughest race ever and at the same time one of the world most rewarding courses, not to mention the wonderful 3-day experience in Kathmandu and the nice staff of the Norbu Linka Hotel in Thamel, a tourist district.
If an ultramarathon or even a shorter distance (11k or 27k) in Asia is in your bucket list, you may want to consider the Kathmandu Ultra Trail. Race director Richard is very helpful for visiting runners. See the results and more pictures.

The 2014 Bush Capital Ultramarathon
I ran on Sunday, August 3 in Canberra, the Aussie capital, The Bush Ultramarathon, being rewarded by a lot of cockatoos in town and smiling kangaroos on the race course in the nature reserve of Mount Ainslie and Mount Majura.
It was by the way my Oceania ultramarathon, after those of Africa (the Royal Raid 80, on 10 May, in Mauritius) and Europe (The Ultra Marin 56 km, on 28 June, in the Gulf of Morbihan, France). The trip took me 7 flights (Paris-Dubai-Singapore-Melbourne-Canberra and Canberra-Melbourne-Dubai-Paris), 7 days and 7 nights, including 3 nights in Canberra and a full day in the city of Dubai. I expect to run my next ultramarathon in a few months in North America. In the meantime, I’ll be still running marathons.
