running barefoot blisters

tonight was ian's first night at gymnastics. i was watching mackenzie whiel dara went jogging on the treadmill. after a while we went to see dara and she was finished. i decided to give the treadmill a try... i think it has too much traction. anyhow, i blazed through a mile thinking i'd do some HIIT (high intensity interval training). but alas, my feet started getting tender with about .1 mile left. by .05 mile they were sore and i should've stopped. LISTEN TO YOUR BODY. but that's not what *we* do when we're trying to push ourselves.  i increased the treadmill to a 7 min/mile pace and charged through. only to have some really sore feet by the end...
