During the snowstorm in MA 2 days ago I jogged for about an hour through fields of 6" untouched power in a pair of five fingers. If you ever want to feel alive, do this! Your feet will feel warm after the first mile or so, and you won't get frostbite as long as it's not too cold (it was 32 that night).

No thanks! Does five fingers count as barefoot?

It doesn't sound like you were truly barefoot. But yes, it was not uncommon for me to make a 100 yard dash to the mailbox barefoot in the snow.

Not a run, but I have staggered about.

Five fingers are pretty close to barefoot, close enough that real barefoot doesn't feel that different. The FF add some protection, I wouldn't want to step on glass or a sharp rock barefoot.

I used to always shovel my car out in the mornings before work barefoot, wearing shorts and no shirt when I lived in Chicago.
Figured, why get everything all wet? I'll warm up when I'm done, and I got done a hell of a lot faster that way. Serious btw. Standing in snow up to your waist in nothing but running shorts gets you going. It's provocative!

My feet do not like being cold, so no.

I imagine there's nothing like being balls deep in snow to motivate you.

I was always the first car on my street to get going. Nuff said.
Sure people thought I was crazy, but hell....they generally do that anyway.
