Yesterday I got a little over ambitious with a new pair of flats that I knew needed to break in before wearing them for a long day at work. I saw these flats because my client had them on and they are just adorable. I asked her if they were comfy and she said that after the initial break in they are very comfortable but be prepared to break them in first. So I bought them and wore them for a few hours twice at work and thought that should do it they are broke in now. NOPE not at all. I wore them yesterday and had to walk about 3 1/2 blocks from where I parked my car and by the end of the walk I wanted to scream. I had several blisters on my feet. My poor toes felt like they were bleeding. I got into work and tried to put some band-aids on my poor feet but it felt awful. That's when one of my co-workers said I should just wear the slippers that we use for clients. Yes! I slide those puppies on and proceeded to wear them the rest of the day much to my embarrassment but sometimes being a little embarrassed is better then not being able to walk at all or think straight because of the pain you are in.

So, that brings us to today. Even though my feet are blistered and sore I was not going to use that as an excuse to not workout. What did I do? I worked out barefoot today. Today was resistance 2 and there really isn't a lot of jumping so this was a good day to go barefoot. And I think it can be good to go without shoes because it will help you build up all the muscles in your feet that support you. No Excuses! You will do it if you put your mind to it. And I put my mind to it today!
