Hi Guys
One of the great things living in Asia is the amount of places offering foot massages cheaply which is a real treat for us BF'rs.
So we were in Hong Kong this weekend and decided to treat ourselves to a foot massage. My girlfriend had been to this place before and it came highly recommended. As our feet were soaking, one of the guys came in, looked at my feet and told me I had to get my feet scraped. After a second's thought, I was like, Sure, wonder how much skin you are going to be able to take off, my feet get naturally abraded, that's just fleshy, fatty padding you are feeling.
Well, I was pretty damn wrong!!
A half hour later, 2 knifes blunted, and the masseurs and my GF in hysterics, it looked like a cup of shaved coconut had been dumped in his lap. He had never seen feet like mine before!
My feet now feel very thin and more flexible. The last few months, I had felt a certain tightness when I curled my toes up or down. I thought this was just me being lazy with rolling a ball under my soles. I need to go for a run later today to see how they feel. Probably just a short one. But this will be a very interesting experiment/experience to see how fast my soles "adapt" to barefoot running coming from a place where I can do up 25k barefoot anyway. (Probably not going to do 25k on these soles right now, I think......)
Anyway, here are the pics......
