During last years UTMB, just after 20km I got huge blisters on my feet. It happened very first time and it seems for no reasons.
It was first race which I didn't finish after suffering for more than 150km.
This was experience which I didn't want to relive again, so after some research I found the remedy - GurneyGoo!
First I used it during UTMF, where weather was completely disaster, but my feet didn't suffer any blisters. I was relieved and I really got addicted to it.
