5 Ways to Soothe Sore and Tired Feet.

After putting in quite a few miles this summer, I was ready to give my sore and tired feet a little spa day at home.

Here are just a few of the things that helped me have an enjoyable spa day at home.

1. The U Comfy foot massager.

 I know we've mentioned this one before. My sister and I each got one of these when we decided to sign up for our first marathons.  Unfortunately I never got to run my first marathon ( Big Sur), but this is definitely coming in handy as I train for the Disney World Marathon ( and Goofy Challenge).

This is one of the BEST massagers because it not only massages your feet but it massages your calf muscles as well. That is usually the part that I need the most help with.  Now if I could only find a massager that worked on my hips and glutes!


2. After using the U Comfy Massager, I soaked my feet in the little foot spa I have. I dropped in a few mint fizzies.

The foot spa is from Conair and has heat, bubble, and vibrating functions.

3. This next product I haven't used in such a long time.

It's an energizing foot mask from the Mary Kay Private Spa Collection. You massage it on to dry feet and let it dry for 10 minutes. After you rinse it off it definitely gives your feet a cooling sensation. it also helps with exfoliation.


4. This is a product I think everyone should keep in their desk drawer. It's Mint Bliss energizing lotion for feet and legs also by Mary Kay.

Not only can you put this on tired feet and legs, but women can also put it right over top of their nylons! This is why  it's good to keep it in your desk drawer at work so you can just pull it out and slather it on when your feet or legs are feeling like they need a "pick me up".


5.After pampering my feet and giving myself a much needed pedicure, I slipped my feet in to these socks.

The generous people at Thorlos must have seen a post I wrote a few weeks ago about how my feet were hurting so they sent me a few pairs of their super comfy socks to try.
I've hear of Thorlos from our friend Lauren ( from Lauren's Glass Slipper) but I never tried them myself.  The unique thing about Thorlos is they have a padded forefoot and padded heel. Something I've never had in a running sock before.  These socks are said to reduce blisters, reduce moisture, reduce pain, and reduce pressure. Although I've only worn the grey and blue pair around the house, I have worn the orange pair ( actually called Mango) out for a run and they did not disappoint! Thorlos for the win!
