This video is about how to strengthen your feet! My feet like being bare feet! I have had lots of ‘trouble’ with my feet over the years, which means I have found out about exercises to help them! And finding the right shoes was always challenging! Very light running shoes were the best for me… Here is the link to the vlog I mention, which I made 9 years ago when training to run in the inaugural X country race from London to Brighton… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kGSo…
I am very much enjoying being barefoot and here I show you rolling your foot with a lacrosse ball, strengthening the arch, stretching the toes, strengthening the top of the foot, mobilising the ankle, curb jumping, step ups, calf raises… and more!]
I have been running all of my life – it feels I was born to run. In the running step I experienced freedom and my true expression. I came to see that I needed to ‘get out of the way of myself’ and let my energy flow through the running step; allow it to express itself in the dance and the motion of running. I ran for England and GB for some years. My first international was in 1979, a three mile cross country race; and I continued to run at international level until 1993. Two of my best results were first place in the Dublin City Marathon in 1985 and 7th place woman, 3rd British woman in the 1986 London Marathon in a time of 2.36.31, which gained me selection for the Commonwealth Games.
As a little girl I ran barefoot for many years, and then I put on shoes to race around the world. Fifty years later I am travelling the world as a nomad with my husband Anadi and I have taken off my shoes and I am running barefoot again….
