I'm going to try a conditioning ride today. I use clip-in pedals/shoes on my road bike and they have carbon soles that are stiff as a board. I've been putting them on every day and standing on the pedals, but was still feeling pain. Today, not so bad, so I'm going to at least give it a spin.

I'm in very good aerobic shape, mostly from cycling, so I've got a bit of buffer there, but this is a high altitude hunt and I've got to find ways to not backslide too far.

I also found a way to lace the Asolo's that keeps that [bleep] shoelace eyelet rivet from digging into my toe bone. I'm going to try wearing those exclusively the next few days and see if it helps.

I'm a big guy @ 6'4" 210 lbs and I've always had surprisingly good wheels. However I can see it's time to start really taking care of my damn feet.
