Up early today since I only have time for a single. Was not overjoyed to see the obnoxious rain. I figured that I would be alone (since Paul and Jon are afraid of the rain). I used the same setup as last night for the foot. NewSkin, no sock, Burns (they have a silky liner for the foot that doesn't rub like other shoes). It worked ok today. It wasn't real ideal since the rain was causing lots of grit to enter my shoe and rub the foot. It got quite irritated and bloody. It looks like a meat grinder got to it. I survived, but at what cost? I am not running on it until later tomorrow to see if it can heal up a bit. Maybe I will stick to the grass and run barefoot. I refuse to let a spot that is smaller than a dime take me out! I ended up running all over the valley with the first 6 in the rain. T-1:20:45 (7:41)
