That is MY shoe
That is my pretty left shoe. And the other piccie is the heel of my pretty left shoe. Which gives you a teeny idea of what my left foot looks like. And no, it was not a blister (despite me being stupid and running 8.4 miles in new shoes). That was the result of a speeding van going past me, kicking up some glass that it hit and glass getting lodged in the back of my foot, the back of my leg and the side of my leg. Mind you, the ones that hit my leg left a lot less damage... I have a cut that gave me a fair amount of grief on the back of my foot during the run. I cleaned it out with some Gatorade Endurance Formula (which reminded me of some film, but I cannot for the life of me remember which one now).
The run itself was fun - the first 2 miles I thought the heat was going to kill me, then it started raining and for the next 2 miles I got wet before the sun came out again and by the time I reached Peg-leg at the end of my run I was relatively dry, although streaky here and there. But at least now my shoes are DNA marked :)

Yikes Girl! That looks like it hurts! I came home on Friday from an 18 miler with bloody socks and shoes- because my shoes are too small and hitting the SEAM of the shoe. Didn't hurt till the end though!
