Barefoot in Stoke Park- inspiring story from local resident
Local resident Mike Farrow shared on Stoke Park Estate Facebook group about his battle with mental health and how through lockdown walking and running barefoot in Stoke Park has been a balm to his soul.
Overwhelmed with the positive response both online and in person in the park Mike has resolved to write a book about his experience. See his story on Bristol 24/7 or regularly update on Facebook Group Stoke Park Estate. Well done Mike, thanks so much for sharing your story and introducing us to the benefits of barefoot running, good luck with your book!
“What gives me hope is that by just running or walking a few miles each day I have probably covered a thousand miles barefoot since last lockdown. If you told me then I would undertake this journey in the face of such adversity, I would have laughed”
