Foot care?

I'm on week 4 and not having any problems now. But if there are something I can look out for or prevent it would be good to know.

Your feet take a bit of a pounding with running so might be a good idea to start using a moisturiser foot cream so you don't get cracked heels which can be very annoying and painful. I also bought some Karrimor padded running socks as my old socks rubbed and gave me blisters, I've had no more problems since switching to the new socks.
