Well, I've been driving down to 5:30/km for the last while, but it's come at a price! All of a sudden (or was it really? Maybe not...?) I have blisters! After my last run I could feel my outer right foot taking a bit of strain, but as it turns out the left foot is the worse one. A blister running up over the side edge of my foot, to about 2cm above the landing surface!
I also have two more predictable deep tissue blisters that I can't really feel right in the landing zone, which make sense, but this one riding up the side of my foot has got me puzzled. I can feel my physical attitude shift as I drop below a 5:30 pace, so I'm doing something different/wrong that I'm going to need to work on.
Any advice from you speedsters out there?
