On blisters: to pop or not to pop is my question. It's on the underside of my pinky toe. It's slightly uncomfortable. It's starting to callous. Is that weird? On Running: yesterday i ran - it was nice. the first mile was great - very easy. The second mile I felt like I was working too hard for an easy run so I told myself to relax and easy up. So I did and the last mile was very easy. I ran: 9:2x 9:5x 9:2x Why did the one in the middle feel harder and less comfortable than the other two? (please note I couldn't see how fast I was going - only how far - so I didn't know this till afterwards. This is not the first time this has happened.) Thanks for all of your thoughts!!

Pop.

but then what for the run? use a bandaid? My feet heal really slowly. I had 2 blisters pop/bleed on my feet a month ago and the scabs are still there.

thanks guys!!

Shan, My three-mile runs on a certain loop I do often are very similar, in that the middle mile sucks the worst. I think it's because I go by my house twice but don't stop. I need a new loop. Good luck with the blister.

really it just felt like i might have been running too fast - course that was also the mile I was trying to get my sportsbra to stop rubbing (my hat did the trick - in case you cared) and I was getting warm (had to stick the gloves in a tree)... really I was having issues early in that mile maybe that just whacked me out.

Tatoo.

You bastard.

What the hell is a hat trick? For real.

I really have no idea. But while we're asking questions, why is this the Mini-Swamp of Discount Beef?

Marcus can answer that.
