You slowly regain consciousness, your head pounding as you try to piece together what happened. The world around you is dark, warm, and smells overwhelmingly of rubber and sweat. As your vision clears, you realize you're lying on a soft yet slightly damp surface. Panic sets in as you look around and see towering walls of fabric stretching above you, stitched together in a familiar pattern. The realization hits you like a tidal wave: you're inside a shoe—inside Bethany Shadburne's CrossFit sneaker, to be precise.
You scramble to your feet, though it takes a moment to balance on the springy insole that’s almost the size of a room to you now. Every detail of the sneaker looms around you in gigantic proportions. The deep grooves of the insole, designed to cushion her powerful strides, now feel like uneven hills beneath your feet. The faint odor of sweat and worn rubber lingers in the air, reminding you that this is a well-used shoe, a tool for countless hours of grueling workouts.
Before you can figure out your next move, a deafening thud shakes the ground, causing you to stumble. Another thud follows, then another, each growing louder and more intense. You look up, and through the small opening at the top of the sneaker, you catch a glimpse of Bethany Shadburne herself.
She towers above you like a living monument, a testament to strength and athleticism. Standing at 5'7" in real life, she is a colossus to you now, her toned physique overwhelming in its sheer size and presence. Her shoulders are broad and powerful, her arms chiseled with muscle, each bicep flexing with effortless strength as she ties her hair back into a tight ponytail. Her core is a marvel of definition, the kind that only years of relentless training could carve out, each ab muscle visible and tight. Her legs, long and muscular, are the pillars that drive her athletic prowess, sculpted by countless hours of squats, lunges, and sprints. Even from here, you can see the striations in her quads and calves, each muscle group clearly defined beneath her smooth skin.
Bethany is dressed for a tough workout, wearing a fitted tank top that clings to her torso and highlights her every curve, and a pair of shorts that hug her powerful thighs. But what catches your eye the most is her foot, hovering just above the opening of the sneaker. It's clad in a white athletic sock, the fabric stretched tight over the curves of her foot, showcasing the shape of her toes, the arch of her sole, and the ball of her foot. The sock is slightly damp, likely from a previous workout, and you can see the faint outline of moisture where it clings to her skin.
As you stare up in awe, the world above you begins to shift. Bethany lowers her foot toward the opening of the sneaker, her movements slow and deliberate. You try to scream, to run, to do anything, but terror and the realization of your situation root you in place. Her socked foot descends like a massive white boulder, the heat radiating off it palpable even from a distance. You can see the intricate weave of the fabric, the way it stretches and compresses around her foot with each tiny movement she makes.
With a soft thump, her foot lands inside the sneaker, filling the space almost completely. The soft light filtering through the mesh upper of the sneaker is abruptly cut off as her foot settles in, casting you into darkness. The damp, humid air becomes stifling, filled with the scent of her sock and the remnants of her last workout. The insole beneath you compresses under the immense weight, and you’re suddenly knocked off your feet as her toes slide forward, sweeping across the insole with unstoppable force.
You’re slammed against the wall of the sneaker, pinned under the ball of her foot as it settles into place. Her sock, once a soft-looking barrier, now feels like an iron net, pressing down on you with an unyielding weight. Every slight shift of her foot sends powerful vibrations through your tiny body, the muscles in her foot flexing and relaxing as she tests the fit of her shoe. The fabric of her sock rubs against your skin, its dampness seeping into your clothes, the scent of sweat and worn fabric growing more intense with every passing second.
The pressure increases as Bethany stands up, her full weight pressing down on you. It's as if the sky itself has fallen, and all you can do is endure it. The insole beneath you provides a small measure of give, but it's not enough to counteract the crushing force of her foot. The walls of the sneaker seem to close in on you, the soft padding that once felt comfortable now pressing into you from all sides. You can hear her heartbeat through the sole of her foot, a steady, rhythmic thud that echoes through your tiny form, a reminder of the powerful body above you.
Without warning, Bethany takes her first step. The world around you lurches violently as her foot rises, then plummets back down, slamming you into the insole with bone-jarring force. The impact drives the air from your lungs, leaving you gasping in the thick, humid darkness. There's no escape, no reprieve—just the relentless rhythm of her stride as she walks across the room, each step a brutal, unyielding crash that crushes you further into the shoe.
Time loses all meaning as she goes about her day, each movement a fresh wave of torment. You’re battered by the powerful flexing of her foot muscles, buffeted by the shifting of her toes, and squeezed mercilessly against the insole with every step she takes. The heat is unbearable, the air growing hotter and more stifling with every passing minute. The scent of sweat and rubber is inescapable, filling your nostrils with every ragged breath you manage to take.
As the day drags on, your body becomes numb to the constant pressure and pain. Every time Bethany pauses, even for a moment, you’re left gasping for air, only for the torture to resume the instant she moves again. You can feel the sweat pooling around you, soaking into your clothes and mixing with the moisture already in the sneaker. Her sock, now drenched, clings to her foot and to you like a second skin, every fiber of the fabric pressing into you with suffocating force.
You can hear the world outside, muffled voices, the clanking of weights, the heavy thud of barbells hitting the floor as Bethany moves through her workout. Each rep she completes sends a fresh wave of pressure through her foot, pressing you deeper into the insole. As she runs on the treadmill, the constant pounding of her steps becomes a ceaseless, agonizing drumbeat, each step slamming you into the ground over and over again. The sweat pouring from her foot only intensifies, soaking through her sock and inundating you in the humid confines of the sneaker.
Finally, after what feels like an eternity, the relentless motion comes to a halt. Bethany pauses, her foot lifting from the ground one last time before she finally slips the sneaker off her foot. You’re left lying there, battered, soaked, and barely conscious, the smell of sweat and rubber still thick in the air. The light filtering through the open top of the sneaker is a cruel reminder of the freedom just out of reach, but for now, all you can do is lie there, your tiny body crushed by the day’s ordeal, knowing that this is just the beginning.
