Dr. Sidy Diallo ran in Paris his 5th truly barefoot marathon: Never send your shabby shoes to Africa!
The 2016 Paris Marathon

Dr. Barefoot Sidy Diallo
Never Send Your Shabby Shoes to Africa
A patronizing runner offered to grant me his training shoes after the race. What would you respond to a guy who stupidly thinks that a Paris Marathon participant is running barefoot because of poverty?
As my followers may have noticed, I’ve partially “civilized” my running outfit to try to help people like him get a better understanding of “modern” barefoot running. “Sending our shabby shoes to Africa” is one of the chapters of my book Running Barefoot for Human Survival.
The book Running Barefoot for Human Survival is available on Amazon in paperback and e-book format (French edition: Courir pieds nus pour sauver les humains).
