The 2010 Chicago Marathon
Marathon # 1
Country # 1
Date: October 10, 2010
My Time: 5:20:26
By Dr. Barefoot Sidy Diallo
I did at 55 in Chicago, Illinois, my first marathon.
I had to walk the last 23 km (14 miles) of the race because of a knee tendonitis. As I explain in my book Running Barefoot for Human Survival, I switched five years later to barefoot running to avoid pain and injury, which proved very effective.
Running Barefoot for Human Survival is available on Amazon in paperback and e-book format (French edition: Courir pieds nus pour sauver les humains).
