I'd classify you as Bare Foot(one foot is bare) or Barefoot* (*= barefoot down grade 90% credit)

I'm totally kidding! That's barefoot, Dude! We don't really run on our heels and I've seen barefooters whoes heels don't even touch! No support, no covering, no loss of sensation and feed back...



Brings me to a question I've been pondering. Let's say a guy has his foot blown off, shot off, looses it in a motorcycle crash, etc. If he runs with a barefoot and one of those "C" spring prosthetics, would you call him barefoot? I'd personally put him one level below Chuck Norris!! That's a bad dude, righ thur! Chuck Norris does not run barefoot...he pushes the world down and simultaniously spins it while not wearing shoes!

I let my heels touch for sure. And more so when I walk... the gash is still pretty painful and open and I mainly try to keep debris out of it.

I also use it for blister covers. I plan on taking a strip or two with me and using that as a stopgap if I get a blister but don't feel the need for a shoe yet.
 
Wait, will running in Duct

Wait, will running in Duct tape give you tapeworms?

Just curious. How long have you had an open wound on your foot?



Since a little before Christmas. The glass in my foot caused some ripping of muscle deep in the foot, so there is still pain and the skin on my foot there is pretty thick so it is taking a bit for it to come together.
 
Good find, JustSayGo.

A lot of my barefoot runs this year have been with a strip of duct tape over it. So if you have duct tape on part or all of your feet... are you barefoot?





The large duct tape manufacturers would love you to think that you are still running barefoot. That way, you will buy more duct tape and your feet will become overly-sensitive again and you will need more duct tape to protect your feet. It is a vicuous cycle. I have broken free of the matrix
