Dear Sally,
I am a runner...classic opening line I know, It's true though! I live for smooth pavement and the warm sun. I live in California and run with a group called The Rapid Runners. We get together every Tuesday night and Saturday and Sunday mornings for our 3hr runs. Lately I've been going through alot of my typical running socks I find at the local store. I can go on a run and within an hour or less already feel a blister on the back of my heel or a hole in the toe area. It seems that each time I buy a new bag of socks they last only a few months if that. My feet are killing me by the end of each run and are covered with blisters and sores. Can you recommend anything for this runners nightmare?
Signed,

Dear Reluctant Rapid Runner,
I feel your pain, but you came to the right place for running socks. I can definitely help you find socks that will cushion and protect your every step.Drymax makes a great running sock that will definitely offer padding and keep your feet cool and blister free. Let me be sure to mention Wrightsock double layer socks. They have several styles in their walking socks or running socks sections that would suit your needs. Pick according to weight and cushioning so you can control the fit of the sock. Key words like "coolmesh" or "ultra light" are generally made with little or no padding so that's something to look out for when sock shopping. Ideal way to go in my opinion is a sock that's made from a polyester material to keep your feet cool and dry but, also a double layer sock that gives optimal blister protection. Perhaps the Wrightsock Anti -Blister Double Layer DLX Running Sock? It has the best of both worlds. Good Luck!
Signed,
Sally
