Sof Sole Gel Heel Pads

Went for a run on Monday and came home with two blisters on the bottom of my feet - i thought it was only heels and 'knuckles' that got them! So I bought some gel pads and will try them out tonight. Anyone else used them before?

I haven't, but they look good. Not sure if they'll stick on so well when your feet get hot though. My boyfriend uses white spirit on his feet when he gets blisters to harden the skin!

Blisters will come anywhere where there is friction on the skin. I have found twin skin socks such as 1000 mile (other brands also available) really good at helping to prevent blisters. No good for fell running though, feet get far too hot, so I am getting the odd blister again now. The compeed blister plasters have worked well, stay in place so don't end up causing even more blisters. Also find it helps to stick a bit of vaseline on areas that are prone to blistering. A lot of fell runners do that surgical spirit thing.
