Ultra Kazzaaaaah!! Mar 2007 10:06am, 12 Mar 2007 0 posts	Quote Pin Ultra Kazzaaaaah!! They survived my 22 miler too mx but s'not a pretty sight (left one goes down pretty quickly but the right is now a blood blister with blister on top - not sure whether to pop it). Not really hampering me to much at the mo but just concerned that, come the day, those few extra miles and faster pace will make all the difference. After my probs last year I'm b"ggered if something as stupid as a blister is going to be the ruination of all my plans.
mxhornet Mar 2007 10:29am, 12 Mar 2007 0 posts	Quote Pin mxhornet I always pop mine despite being told not to. I suppose it depends where they are too and I often find using other shoes top the ones that caused the problem can be helpful, in my case it was my cross country spikes which I shall not be wearing for a little while now.
Ultra Kazzaaaaah!! Mar 2007 10:35am, 12 Mar 2007 0 posts	Quote Pin Ultra Kazzaaaaah!! Going to wear my Mizunos for my 12 miler on Wednesday. Don't normally wear them for anything over 10k but think I'll give them a go. Don't like popping blisters in case they end up infected but might just do it. It still hasn't completely gone down.
Gobi Mar 2007 10:38am, 12 Mar 2007 0 posts	Quote Pin Gobi Kaz dont pop Lance them so the skin stays there
mxhornet Mar 2007 10:40am, 12 Mar 2007 0 posts	Quote Pin mxhornet As Gobi explains more correctly keep the skin on but loose the fluid and cover with a plaster preferable one that will stay on when running.
Girlie Mar 2007 10:42am, 12 Mar 2007 0 posts	Quote Pin Girlie pretty good, managed to run at an almost constant pace all the way round. Hoping I can keep that pace or a bit quicker on Sunday at Silverstone.
