    blisters in odd places where you least expect them, and friction burns on your toes.

    I get blisters in my arches, I have twin skin socks, but have just discovered Engo Blister patches - they fix to the shoe in the place you blister (in my case where the insole meets shoe, and my foot rubs against it) and are anti-friction. Problem so far solved!

    when I started running was a way to burn calories on my out of the gym days now my gym days are to burn calories when I can't go running.

    Running is so much fun. I can only run between 30-35 minutes without stopping but I'm just getting started. Also, I haven't experienced the black toe nail thing but I think it's coming. My lips are always chapped no matter how hydrated I am during a run.

    That there's a nirvana in running a mile straight up a mountain, testing your mettle for the pure sake of it. Non runners call it crazy.

    That it'd be one of the most addicting things. DURING the run I'm not too enthused, but nothing compares to the sense of I DID IT!!! after completing a run.

    I get antsy if I haven't run in a while.

    That just because you are 90lbs overweight doesn't mean you can't run!! I'm up to 8 minute intervals and have shed 15lbs in the process.
