Up to 3.5 Miles before the blister blows up

A new culprit, perhaps... I think the hard material used to form the Asics logo on the side of the shoe is pulling tight and causing problems. The side of the shoe is nice stretchy mesh, but those Asics lines have no stretch to them, and pull taught. After 3.5 miles yesterday, I had a very specific area of the foot that felt blisterish. I stuck my finger in the shoe, and low and behold, I was dead on one of those lines. I'm going to try skipping the lacing hole associated with that line and see if that does it. I'm going to do mole padding for Saturday as well. We'll see. After this Saturday, I'll have 5 weeks left. One of those at least has to be a taper week, so I have 4 weeks of training. I better peak in the 3rd week, which means I better be up to at least 10 miles on April 19th. If the blister would freaking cooperate with me, I swear I can do it. We'll see.....
