So there was this long running race I did the other weekend, so I don't do long running races ever, so the back of my shoe (despite appropriate socks) chafed against the back of my heel. I never really got a blister, there's just a patch back there with no skin. So every morning for the past week I wake up and take my first few steps in pain as I crack open the scab that formed overnight and stretch it out so I can flex my foot again. Apparently I sleep with my feet pointed. This has been rather irksome and I've had a glowing feeling today that tomorrow morning it's not going to do that and I'll be able to go rollerskiing without getting my sock stuck to my heel. (I DID use a nice band-aid but it always crept off, so I stopped.) Here's hoping.
