Saturday’s 40th annual Stars and Stripes Fun Run will feature a 76-year-old barefooted runner.

Jerrie Barber, the interim preacher at Central Church of Christ, will be participating in the 5K race for the second year in a row.

Barber says he’s been a runner for 52 years, but he didn’t start running barefoot until he was 65.
