    Been there done that. It is unlikely that any running shoe and average sock is going to cause that. Your body just isn't used to power walking.

    When I first started at the gym I initially did 5 minutes on the elliptical, then 10, 15, 30, 45, and now am up to 60 minutes at high intensity on the octane machines.

    Start slow and build up. Rome wasn't built in a day.

    As I said in my post, I was getting blisters on the ball of my foot and upper thigh chafing from walking

    I changed shoes, socks and got lycra 'second skin' leggings - never had a blister or chafing since
