Blisters

I have thoroughly enjoyed getting back into running... yes, there are nights where I wish I could just sit and eat with the family but for the most part, I very much look forward to getting on the treadmill.  (I know, what a weird thing to say).  However... I still haven't solved my blister problem!  Argh!  At first I thought it was because my feet had gotten soft and tender and just needed to toughen up, but this is a continual problem that I have yet to solve!  It's only in two places on my right foot and it only seems to be a problem if I run more than 6 or 7 miles, which, lets face it, is becoming every run.  I got some Smart Wool socks which felt fantastic and wonderful, but didn't stop the problem :(  And since I'm running so often, my foot would hurt so badly I wouldn't want to wear my regular shoes because it hurt to badly.  So, I went back to Gazelle and am trying another pair.  This brand is guaranteed to be blister free... so I will be putting them to the test this weekend.  I have to run 9, 6 and 12... so I will definitely be putting them to the test right away!  Let's keep our fingers crossed that it works!  My feet are hoping so!
