It was a great day for running. I had some complications very early today but nothing I couldn’t get over. Around mile three I felt a hot spot developing on my foot. Yep it was a blister. Normally I would have done the entire day’s milage on the foot then treat it later but I remembered this journey is going to be a little bit longer than the others. So, I stoped in front of a 7-11 and I drained the thing. It wasn’t nice running on it but luckily around mile 12, my mom was waiting with a fresh pair of socks. We walked into a Walgreens pharmacy close by, bought some suppplies and treated the foot. The blister stayed dry and pain free the rest of the day. I’m glad I treated the thing early. I’ve had some pretty ugly looking blisters in the past so I know how important it is to nip these problems in the bud!
