b) Stay barefoot. Now try taking shorter steps as you walk at a fast pace for 1 minute. Does this change the feeling in your heel, outer foot, arch, or toes?

c) Put your shoes back on. Now walk at a fast pace for 1 minute. How do your feet feel now?

d) Can you think of any benefits to your body if you walked barefoot more often?
