I am starting this thread to find out how many runners are or will be competing in races this season barefoot. There are at least four runners competing this season that I know of who compete in races in bare feet. They are:
Annie Bothma (Coastal Carolina)
Aynslee Van Graan (Coastal Carolina)
Lisha van Onselen (Coastal Carolina)(D1)
The fourth woman is one that you may not know about. D3 runner. She is Monica Redfern from Lake Forest College in Illinois. She started competing with no shoes on as a freshman in her first meet and has run every meet she has run since in her bare feet. She is a junior this season.
If anyone else knows of and/or sees anyone competing in a race in her bare feet,please add them to the list. Thank you.
