What Can Happen When You Try Barefoot Sprints...
Some injuries are too good not to share.
And I thought r/fitness might enjoy the "ick" factor of this picture.
For the record this was not my first, or even second time doing barefoot sprints. It was however, the first time I attempted them after jogging barefoot around an outdoor track a few times to warm up.
You see, when the zombie apocalypse occurs, I have to assume there will be a time when I do not have shoes and will have to run very fast for very great distances. And it was all in the spirit of self preservation (ironically) that I did this to myself.

You should see the blood blisters I had from the Chicago Marathon in my vibrams...
