The 2014 White Continent Marathon
Marathon # 68
Country # 22
Date: January 26, 2014
My Time: 4:47:42

No barefoot marathon in Antarctica: humans are not penguins!
I did in Antarctica my 68th marathon. Antarctica is the only one of the Seven Continents where humans cannot run a marathon with unprotected feet, as Homo sapiens is a tropical species. No wonder, then, that the penguins came close to me, as if to say to me: “Welcome to our home, buddy, but this is our natural habitat, not yours, take care of your body!” I explain why in my book Running Barefoot for Human Survival.
Running Barefoot for Human Survival is available on Amazon in paperback and e-book format (French edition: Courir pieds nus pour sauver les humains).
