Day 308 - Cloudy, breeze, cool, wet.
Gentle Wilbur dog stroll around the park. Autumn is glowing golden before packing up for Winter.

I use the Silva Trail Runner Free Ultra. Rechargeable pack or battery option, comfortable, sturdy, waterproof. The '2' version is out now. Definitely recommended but not the cheapest.

I like the idea of the curved ones but they're way too expensive. Outdoors is always best.

I've never had an issue with my veins. My resting HR is 39, HRmax is 178 and blood pressure is 124/80. That seems ok at 56 years old. No varicose veins or pain. The photo was immediately after exercise so they were warm and well used 😅 I'll bear your advice in mind though. Thanks for caring ❤️

I'm hoping not. They're not completely black and seem to be getting some healthy colour back. Good socks and snug fitting shoes definitely help.

I've been kicking (taekwondo) and running for years. Had almost every foot related injury and this was a first! Did a marathon in a new brand & felt the foot slipping but just kept on. Think I should've tightened the laces a bit more. Lesson learned, but at least they've stayed in place so far.

Not something I've ever want or had thank goodness. Here's hoping that you never need surgery.

Day 307 - Broken cloud, breeze, cool, wet.
Squelch through fallen wet leaves with Wilbur dog, slowing things down a bit more to recover. Forgot my phone so took a photo of 5 week post marathon toes that are repairing themselves. Sorry to the podophobists!

They're pretty much just sugar so I'd say they'd be ok. Get a few long runs in and use them up. Depending how far past, maybe try one at home and see if you get a PB running to the loo 😅

Day 306 - Clear to cloudy, stiff breeze, cool, damp.
Quiet Sunday stretch around the back roads. A few runners and familiar if seldom seen faces.

Day 305 - Broken cloud, calm, cool, wet.
A steady #Parkrun route B in place of intervals to keep up the hamstring rehab. Still nippy but only because I'm not taking it easy enough. At least #5kaday still on track with 178 miles in October and 1739 for the year 🥳

Day 304 - Broken cloud, windy, mild, wet.
Took Wilbur dog a different, slightly longer recivery route today which put a spring in his step. Must be a bit bored of the usual circuit and proves that he's got a bit more pace than he lets on. Horse Mushrooms 🍄‍🟫

The Proclaimers are a national institution. 500 miles is an unofficial anthem that's never far from the surface 😏 I remember once organising an event and used this song for the warm-up. It went down very well 🙌 Real toe tapper that got everyone wiggling 😜

Day 303 - Broken cloud, calm, cool, wet.
Weary Wilbur dog waddle, bent stiff and sore after yesterday. About time that I allowed myself some extended recovery. Great idea but let's see how it goes.

Hopefully, your foot will toughen up in time and the shoes will be a little more forgiving. Every used Compeed blister plasters? They're great!
