The barefoot movement is going too far with this project.
Ross on Science of Sport:
Only 3 days to go before I jet off to Kilimanjaro to tackle Africa’s highest summit, and the world’s highest free-standing mountain…barefoot…
My mission is to help get ONE person to the top barefoot, and to do it safely. …
It’s an attention getter, that’s for sure. Funds raised go to the Red Cross Children’s Hospital in South Africa.

Way too far. Maybe I’ll organize a trip to Kili using pogo-sticks. And dedicate it to a “cause” – the circus clowns retirement fund.
Kilian’s sponsor, Salomon, makes these over-the-top videos, but Kilian himself is the real deal; totally authentic and dedicated.
