love the feet
Geared myself up for a nice long walk this morning. I’ve been wearing my crocs on my walks lately, but today I wore my Vibram 5 finger shoes. They’re supposed to be better for your feet and body overall, but there IS an adjustment period where your feet have to get used to wearing them. A two mile walk in 90+ degree heat is probably not the best “breaking in” period.
I think I’ve minimized the blisters I’m going to have, but my feet have some small hot spots that I’m trying to baby. I slathered lotion on them and put some slippers on.
Isis came with me on the walk and even she felt the effects of the long hot walk. I came home and crawled into a tub of water - soaked and relaxed. She collapsed on the kitchen floor after taking some water. We’re both crashed out on the couch now. I’m watching Battlestar Galactica and Isis is zonked out.
Tomorrow’s walk will be shorter… not sure if my feet will be in crocs or in my vibrams.
