    maxcady there must be something wrong with your topology; most likely double Vertices.: select the whole foot and then M > Megre by Distance.

    I think spikeyxxx is correct,

    If you look closely you can see there are edges visible that are grey.

    When a face, or face loop is selected, all edges of the selected faces should be orange (or white for the active face).

    Look, I deleted 60 extra vertices with Merge by distance, and I still can't properly select the hole loop in one shot. :-(

    maxcady I pulled your mesh apart a bit and hid some parts, but here is where and why your Edgeloop stops:
