Hi Jan,thankyou. I surprised myself that I'm not still sore!Could hardly move on Monday but I got up and walked the clampett's at 6.30 yesterday and today(very slowly!).Not one single blister!Amazing when you think I only got my shoes last Wednesday...Ellie decided to add her own design to my ones I was going to wear! At this stage I am going to do it next year,planning on trying to run it.next challenge I've set myself.Probably fooling myself but this time last year I wouldn't have given myself much chance of walking it. Again,thanks for the support,Margaret
