Consider your feet
Each of your feet contains 26 bones, ingeniously linked and controlled by 33 joints, 107 ligaments and 19 muscles and tendons, and protected by an extraordinary waterproof material – skin.
No wonder Leonardo da Vinci − as brilliant an engineer as he was an artist − described the human foot as a “masterpiece of engineering”.
It’s manoeuvrable enough to enable a good footballer to bend a ball precisely round a defensive wall, and durable enough to enable the average person to walk more than 100,000 miles in their lifetime. But it’s also highly vulnerable to neglect, abuse and injury. So look after your feet, and they’ll look after you.
