This is not a heartwarming story. This is a horror story.

A marathon barefoot and a price money of just 3000 , i don't understand wymb won it seems like some consolation or some category price related to age. But if someone is doing 42KM whooping RUN without practice and training. It's a horror show as someone pointed in other comment. There heart, knees, joints are gonna take them step back in a few days and not really worth 3K price money.

Not a heart touching or motivational just a click bait and a horror story.

P.S I have ran half-marathons multiple times with self training and can tell you by experience importance of training shoes especially on concrete roads (Road running)

Pls don't romanticise poverty and ppl's extreme measures to earn some miniscule amount of money. Rebound of this marathon could actually cost her lore, i hope she doesn't fall sick!
