Lisa Bliss' ATY Feet After 150 Miles In 48 Hours

I received a great note along with some photos from Drymax Athlete and 2007 Badwater winner Lisa Bliss about her 150 mile 2nd place performance at this year's Across The Years 48 hour race. Lisa soldiered on despite a nagging residual injury with a wonderfully positive attitude.

Full Disclosure: Since wearing Drymax socks Lisa has never had a blister, this includes multiple races including the 2008 Umstead 100 and 2008 Spartathlon. The impressive streak ended at ATY due to mechanical issues she was dealing with.

"Hi Bob,

It was great to see you at Across the Years. My feet held up VERY well, just one small blister on the side of my big toe due purely to mechanical issues. Here are some post-race pictures as visual proof. I wore the Maximum Protection, switching them out about 3 times. I changed into trail socks the second night. 150+ miles in Drymax and still...not a worry about how my feet were going to hold up as far as blisters go. These are the ONLY socks for me!

Lisa additionally posted on Facebook...

"I wore my Drymax Socks - the maximum protection and, through the last night, the trail socks. These socks rock. Only one small blister on the side of my right big toe, and that was bound to happen no matter what I wore because of some mechanical problems I've been having with that foot for years."

We are so proud to have the faith and confidence of Lisa Bliss during her epic ultra running events.
