Making progress

in Austin Marathon 2008

It’s looking and feeling better today. Still, I know it’s gonna hurt like the dickens on marathon day, but I’m prepared for Sunday. Feet are disgusting, this is why we have shoes. Shoes, glorious shoes.

Suz,
It does look a little better. I wish I could let you borrow my foot on race day, but then you would be really, really slow! My foot isn’t very fast!

yeah, i still gotta find some duck tape though.

Owie! What you should do going forward, if you haven’t tried this already, is put a moleskin patch on that area before a blister forms-maybe on your longer runs and for race day since you always get it in the same spot.

Oh gees! Well maybe it will distract from the general bodily pain of running a marathon :-)

I shoulda told you to lather it with “NuSkin”.

As Tim Gunn on Project Runway would say: ‘This concerns me.’

That is one yucky looking blister. I hope it heals well enough to not cause you problems. I can’t believe you’ve got a marathon right around the corner….

Yes, much tastier. Don’t look down on Sunday Susan; the sight of one red shoe and one white might put you off. Good luck, and have fun!

OWWW! You are going to do great!

Elizabeth February 15, 2008 at 11:07 pm

holy ouch. I hope you have some serious blister aid for that on Sunday. Here I was feeling sorry for myself during Tampa because of some toe blister that pales in comparison to this.
