IEH4M - I have trail shoes but I'm just wearing road shoes for Swinging Bridge.<br><br>
I've run the last 10 miles of the 50k - so the first 35k that I'm running Saturday will be a first for me. In the last 10 miles that you'll be doing - there are creeks, but they aren't really that bad. For the most part, the creeks are either shallow, or in the deeper sections (which aren't much more than ankle deep) I remember there being 'rock hop' points.<br><br>
My advice is just to (limited as it is) is just to lube your toes up with some extra vaseline on race morning.<br><br>
Knowing what I do know of the course - you cross by the start/finish at the 35k point - you could leave a change of socks/shoes there if you wanted to. I do know that you will get your feet at least a little damp though in the last 10 miles.<br><br>
Looking forward to seeing you out there on Saturday - you rock!
