I found out that an Urbandale gym called Life Time Fitness has a run club and I reached out to the admin on Facebook and asked if they had barefoot runners and she said I could run barefoot if I wanted to but would have to wear shoes in their gym. She said that for April she would have people do a barefoot run one week for my challenge. Everything went well and I did 3.07 miles. Even though I got a blister on my second toe afterwards like my last 5K. @Barefoot TJ said for next time to be conscious of how much weight or pressure on that area. Also I'm not going to overthink it too much while running and it'll wok itself out by me changing my gait or my skin thickening over time.
