Kevlar hockey socks. Sounds like a sock that might be tough enough for barefoot running. The socks are made of 35% Kevlar and are designed to reduce cuts from skates. Yesterday I tested a pair with a 12k run. I ran on a variety of surfaces from snow covered trails, asphalt, gravel to chip-seal. One hole was the result. After re-examining the sock I discovered the hole was in the unprotected part of the sock. These are the most abrasion resistant sock I have run with to-date.
Gord's Frozen Ass Fifty in feb should have no chipseal and very little gravel (based on last year) so i think I may have found the sock for the 50k.
Besides the test it was a beautiful spring like day, perfect for running
