Continued Frustrations
Here I am, 10 days later, with not much to report. The foot is definitely looking better. Over the last week I've run 25 min, 35 min, 45 min, 56 min, 60 min, day off, and 45 min. When I started running again, it was very laborious and I was breathing hard. By the fourth run, I began feeling a lot better. I didn't really need a day off, but I think a day off of no activity on my foot will certainly quicken the healing process. Today I was hoping to do my normal 70 min run, but my protected foot became unprotected and I got a new (small) blister on a different spot on my foot. The chances for running Boston continue to dwindle, but I will continue to cross my fingers and hope for a miracle.

The title was a little tough. With that kind of 10-day progression I may have been inclined to write something like "Strong recovery: feet almost blister-proofed!" Hang in there. You must be doing quite a few things right. Problem-free Running isn't exactly as straight-forward as baking chocolate chip cookies... all the best, corrado
