I've kept track of my barefoot hiking since the beginning of 2006. (I'm referring to real barefoot, not minshod--when I did occasionally have to put something on my feet, I didn't count it in the total.) As of my hike yesterday the count went over 2000 miles (actually, it's currently at 2003.8).
I realize that I don't put on the sort of mileage that you real runners do, but it's still quite a bit if you think about it (and much of it was carrying either an 18-pound fanny pack or a 30-pound backpack).
I started hiking barefoot back in 1996 and wish I'd started keeping track immediately, but it's too late now.
I say a bit more (and describe my last hike) in this blog entry:
