Preventing Blisters - oooh

So, I just came across an article on eHow called "How to Treat and Prevent Blisters Caused by Running" - the eHow regulars have given the article 4 stars out of 5 and it gives you a list of 6 products and 'treatments' for blisters. 

Let me tell you that I hope you don't have to go past tip number 2. Tip number 1 is telling you to buy some decent running shoes and then, guess what, tip number 2 tells you to invest in a decent pair of running socks. The image use is, of course, an X-Sock (model: Run Speed One). 

The writer of the article is quite right in saying that a decent pair of socks will wick moisture away from your feet and therefore reducing blisters. He says "stay away from cotton socks", I agree totally.

Let's hope you really don't have to get down to tip 6.

Have fun and check out all the X-Socks Running Socks on buyXsocks.com
