Hiking barefoot. I've enjoyed hiking for a long time, but recently started doing so shoeless. I find the enhanced situational awareness to be thrilling, and am excited to see how far I can push my feet. I think hiking has always been a way for me to connect with nature, and doing so barefoot adds to that immensely.

They would get pretty sore when I started. Sometimes I'll get some foot cramps at night if I push it too hard. And gravel, miles on gravel trails will leave my feet tender the next day, even after over a year of toughening up my soles
