This is how your feet feel
BEFORE you begin the Challenge Walk. See how happy they are? You would never
suspect how complicated those sweet little tootsies are that carry us along for
miles and miles. Here are some fun feet facts for you:
- Your feet have 26 bones, 33 joints, and more than 100 tendons,
muscles, and ligaments.
- The World Record for the biggest foot is a whopping size 28 ½.
(Try finding that at Payless!)
- The foot accounts for 25% of all the bones in the human body.
- Your foot has 250,000 sweat glands.
Madeline Albrecht holds the Guiness World Record for the most feet
smelled: 5,600. She worked for Dr. Scholls. (And I whined about my job.)
Now aren’t you feeling a little
more respect for you feet? Be sure to pamper them on Challenge Walk weekend
with fluffy slippers, lots of dry socks, foot soaks and a black marker to draw
new “happy faces” on your toes.
