Sunday afternoon again - I felt like running away so I did - this is my longest totally barefoot run so far, just short of 11 miles, and about a mile of it was on "loose chippings" that had not yet bedded in much - not very comfortable. The dog didn't seem to mind though. The link should open in Google Earth (if you have it installed). The route starts with a segment of my usual "forest run", then through Hollywood to part of St Kevin's way and back along what we call "Goat man's lane".
Yes, I was tired afterwards, but I could have run further. My feet are coping pretty well - one problem I have at the moment is cracks in the creases underneath where the toes join the foot: I get cracks on my hands too, and the condition is probably related to the nail fungus which I also suffer from. The best treatment I have found so far for cracks is pink Germolene creme: basically it keeps the area from drying out. I am not sure if my link is correct as Bayer appear to have rebranded the substance. I have, of course, tried various topical treatments for the nail fungus and none have worked. The latest idea is to try healing clay (calcium bentonite) both internally and topically, but I have not plucked up the courage to do this yet as it is fairly invasive. Any readers that can offer a remedy with first hand experience of its efficacy might like to comment...
