VFFs is not barefoot. They're minimalist shoes. I ran 2 marathons in VFFs and ready to do 3h10 at my next, but my goal is exactly this, 3h00 marathon barefoot and this guy is my inspiration. After 500k barefoot (40k a week) I only got a tiny shard of steel once and it's not a big deal. I avoid glass and probably step on some, but it doesn't cut the sole if the skin has been built up well enough.
JULIAN ROMERO ROCKS !!!!

I have him as a friend on Dailymile, that is amazing that he ran the marathon in that speed barefooted. That is quite an achievement!

that's amazing for a sub3 marathon. At this moment, I can only do 3:40 barefoot. Will attempt another barefoot marathon this 27 June 2010.

get vibram five fingers. they allow you to run barefoot but protect your feet from glass and other stuff on the ground.
