Blisters

I have a little blister on the inside of my 3rd toe. I've looked in to some ways to prevent and treat blisters. Here is a website with some good ideas on blisters: http://walking.about.com/cs/blisterschafing/bb/bybblister.htm

I think I'll try lubing up my toes with vaseline before my next walk (if I remember!) and I'm going to start putting lotion on my feet at night before bed. I may also look into getting some blister pads.

I think I'll also need to look into getting some new shoes. I've had them for a while now and they say that walking/running shoes are really only good for 200 miles. As much as I do I'm sure my shoes are in the 300 miles range. I've had them for a few years now.
