5k barefoot?

Has anyone in this group ever run a 5K barefoot? I remember seeing a young gal do so at a 5k a number of years ago.
I dont know how she did it! The 5K trail was full of rocks and stones. Is it a case of conditioning? What is the key to being able to do this? Not that Im going to try it anytime soon!

I run barefoot. But I do it on pleasant grass or sand.

I did two summers ago read about the experience. Would do it again or maybe wear vibrams

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Practice makes all the different would never recommend someone go from wear shoes all the time or ost of the time to trying to run barefoot.
