Subject: RE: I have a massive bilster now what?Cool, nobody's said it yet: Suck it up, buttercup!  Seriously, prior to my first tri a couple of weeks ago, I tried running w/out socks so I could do same during the bike/run portions of the race. My feet didn't want to cooperate and I managed to get blisters on both soles. Fast forward to race day and the issue was still there, albeit not as pronounced. I mentioned to the guys doing the tri with me that I wanted to use socks due to the blister issue...they laughed and said the blisters would heal and I should "suck it up." So I did and with a little talc in my shoes for good measure, things went great. I developed a very small blister on my right foot sole, but that was it and it wasn't painful at all. Good luck! |
