I think over 100km it will be impossible to avoid blisters altogether but so long as I can minimise them to a large extent I'll be delighted. The next issue though, outside of fitness is looking to prevent chafing.

This is some formula of oils that you rub into your feet before you put your socks on and it is "supposed" to prevent blisters. Seemingly all it takes is to rub 5ml (a teaspoon) worth of Stride Out into each foot and hey presto.

A recent study has shown that there is now 85% less glaciers on the summit of Kilimanjaro then there was in 1912. The glaciers are melting and crumbling away whilst at the same time experiencing reduced levels of snowfall. With these factors in mind, it is believed that the summit of Kilimanjaro will be snow-free in between 15 - 30 yearshttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/roamthehills/~3/uRJ1zcH3g5g/trek-kilimanjaro-whilst-glaciers-are.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (CF Rich)3<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/roamthehills/~4/uRJ1zcH3g5g" height="1" width="1"/>http://roamthehills.blogspot.com/2011/03/trek-kilimanjaro-whilst-glaciers-are.html
