Back on the treadmill last night, for a change since I'm not working this week, I thought I'd walk to the gym. Wrapped up well for the cold night, in thick socks, jeans and boots, I shoved my trainers and gym gear into my bag.
And then, far too late, as I was getting changed, I realised I had made a mistake - I had brought my shorter cut-off jogging pants, but hadn't taken my little trainer socks... There's no way I'm going out there with my bright stripey winter socks on and short trousers!
So, do I head back home and get the right clothes? Do I make the best of it and try to roll/ fold my socks down so not to look too ridiculous?
No.
Out I go, grinning and making the best of going sock-less.
Such a bad idea. Blister on right big-toe, and painful rubbed tender spots on inside of both left and right feet at toe joint. Left foot so badly rubbed on inside mid foot skin looks like raw and very sore to the touch (although thankfully skin not actually broken).
Still. At least I got my 25 minutes in. pfft. *rolls eyes at own self's idiocy*
In all likelihood will be a few days before my feet are recovered enough I want to risk pounding the treadmill again. But as with everything else, I've done damage, learned better of it and will definitely be wearing socks in future.
