blisters suck. Plasters dont help!
So in planning my 3 day challenge I had forgotten that I was working in Croydon today – which means a 5 mile ride there and back but, Hell, I wasn’t going to let that stop me though!
So I got home, stuck some padded plasters over the blisters and set off. However, straight away I knew it wasn’t really working but I carried on for 2k before I decided to stop running rather than carry on and shred my feet. Better let it heal for a few days and start again next week than make it really raw and have to wait longer.
I got home, and realised why. The plasters just moved under the pressure/friction of running and then simply pulled the blister slowly off. Ouch.
Not wanting to admit complete defeat I decided to do some Sit-ups and press ups. I was aim for three sets of 30 sit-ups and 3 sets of 20 press ups. hahahahhaha.
I shan’t tell you what I managed, but suffice to say, I need practice! A new daily routine is born!
