Most runners Runners should not get blisters. There are those who are running in except for the most extreme situations that make blisters very hard to avoid [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Badwater_Ultramarathon Badwater] but for distances of 50 miles or less, blisters should not be an issue. I suffer from a skin condition called [[Epidermolysis Bullosa]] that makes my skin blister easily, so if but I can run 100+ miles without blisters, you should be able to! . There are a number of approaches to preventing blisters, but the keys are good [[Running Form]] and correctly fitting shoes.
==Causes of blisters==
Blisters are primarily caused by shearing force, which is where force is applied to the skin across its surface. Blisters can also be formed due to trauma, such as stubbing your foot.
