blisters…in SHOES!
All the barefoot running I’m doing and when do I get blisters? BAD blisters? While wearing shoes!
To be fair to my shoes, today’s 1 hour 44 minute run (my farthest since last fall) was done without SOCKS. Yes, I’m an idiot. I forgot my sport socks and instead of accepting that my black work socks would be OK (if not a fashion statement), I chose to go without socks entirely.
The short story version is I ran one hour ten minutes like that and did the last 34 minutes in my bare feet. But the damage was done. I got some terrible blisters. Blisters that will make running a bit painful for the next few days.

(nice run otherwise)

Running without socks is painful. I’d have run barefoot for the entire run if I didn’t have socks, or I’d wear flip flops. I think I’ve probably put close to 30-40 miles on my sandals.
