Ok, what is the best way to go about doing this? Take shoes off at the beginning of the race? wear oversize shoes that will fall off on the first straightaway?
I know the course becuase we have run it every week and im sure i will win becuase the closest guy behind me has barely broke 18 mins. This is for 5k of course..
oh yea. Will i get dq'd if they fall off on the straightaway?
Just show up at the line with no shoes, and when the gun goes off, start running.
There's no rule saying you must wear shoes to race (at least, not in the NCAA), so if some guy says he's gonna DQ you for that, relax, 'cuz he can't.
its a hs race and the meet director told one of my friends that you cant run barefooted
bump
paint your feet black and tie a lace around each one,

No just cut the bottoms off of your shoes. Use crazy glue to keep the upper part from falling off. Paint the bottom of your feet to match the bottom of the shoe you cut out. Works like a charm.
that would be extra weight.and not "bare"

Talk to the meet director, reason it out with him.
Cite the NCAA rule.
It's probably just his own contrived rule that he made up, anyway.
Or if you want to be sneaky, just start the race with shoes (tied on loose so you can rip 'em off realy quick), then once you have a sizeable lead, act like you're feet are hurting from blisters, and ditch the shoes. After the race, just ell everyone they were hurting your feet. Perfectly good excuse.
thats the best one i heard so far..thanks
are you actually any good or just some kind of nut? Why don't you worry about actually competing in the race, not just pulling some stunt.
