Tenacious Thursdailies (12/07/07)

10k run at 4-hour marathon pace (10.5km/hr)

Felt good, but developed a blister on my right instep at about the 45 minute mark which was more than a little irritating. Never happened before, no structural reason inside the shoe... I think my socks might be wearing a little thin.

45 min. 8 kilometers.

acutally, probably closer to 9 kilometers. i got out and got into a groove and rode it. i'm feeling stronger, that's for sure but i'm not so hopeful as to think my injury issues are behind me.

beware blisters, DT. they seem inconsequential but they can really become a problem if you don't take care of 'em.

Had it covered with one of those big heavy-duty band-aids this morning. It's about the size of a 20c coin (about 2cm across). It had hardened up a little over night which I presume is a positive thing.

i've found the bastards tend to breed. the bandage i put on to protect the blister causes other blisters and so on and so on. it's not too much of an issue for me right now but when the weather gets hotter and my feet sweat more it's a real hassle.
