Ok....I have good news and bad news...
The good news is I seem to have gotten the upper hand on the blisters. Slicing the big one wide open, applying antiseptic regularly and soaking in salt water seemed to work. I still applied band-aids and mole skin before today's run - just to be safe - but ended up with no trouble with them at all. Yay!
However, that might be the only part of my lower body that doesn't hurt :( My body is seriously telling me it does NOT like these longer distances. Even my feet hurt...all the time...a dull kind of burning ache. Kind of ironic that I was the one who wanted to do a half-marathon and I was the one who wanted to go to Vegas...Now I just can't wait for it to be over. Only 3 more long runs...That's what I have to remember. Surely I can make it through 3 more long runs...
That's all...
You can do it.
ReplyDeleteJust remember. It's okay to walk..... I know I know...
