The 2025 Easter Sunday Marathon

Barefoot Marathon # 178

By Dr. Barefoot Sidy Diallo
I did this private barefoot marathon on Easter Sunday 2025 in Playa del Inglés, Gran Canaria, to convey an unconventional message: no matter who or what we may think we are, the human body is anthropologically designed for the hunter-gatherer lifestyle, i.e. barefoot long-distance running and walking.
The closer we get to our natural lifestyle, the fitter, happier, and physically and mentally healthier we will be. Sadly, there’s still a long way to go. This is one of the main reasons why so many people, including runners, end up having to say goodbye to the steering wheels of their cars and switch to wheelchairs or even move to nursing homes, as I explain in the book Running Barefoot for Human Survival (French edition: Courir pieds nus pour sauver les humains). Both editions are available on Amazon in paperback and e-book format.
