It happened. I got my first ever blister from running!
Normally, this would be highly upsetting. It definitely makes things a little tricky... I mean, I had to buy some moleskin, I'm going to have to soak my feet tonight, and go easy on my cross training tomorrow. But... I got my first ever blister from RUNNING!!!
Strange as it may sound, I'm actually quite proud of the fact that I'm running enough now to even develop a blister. :) I guess it's sort of like how prima ballerinas tear their feet up in pointe shoes... only I'm in sneakers. Ha!
Of course, I will obviously want to remedy this problem. Any blisters past the first one are just annoyances. But for now, I will bask in the glory of my first running blister. :)
And if anyone out there has recommendations for running shoes for over-pronators, or solutions for preventing and/or treating blisters in general... they are definitely welcome. (See, I'm proud of the blister... but it's still a bit painful!)
Thanks!
Your runner-with-a-victorious-pustule,
