i walk barefoot on the beach for exercise...i walk 3.6 miles in 54 minutes so it is pretty fast walking....in the process i have developed a large blood blister on my big toe. i like walking barefoot because it strengthens my ankles....does anyone have any ideas on how to prevent the blisters without having to wear shoes????

Wearing a pair of water socks should not be detrimental for the strengthening of your ankles. They are made of such a thin rubber at the bottom after all. And yet they should be more than thick enough to protect your toes from being eaten down to nubbins by the abrasive sand.
The good thing is that they are not at all expensive, so if you wear them out quickly, replacing them should be no hardship.

Seriously, just cover with a bandaid or similar. The surrounding tissue will absorb the fluid. Blood blisters don't usually hurt, if in doubt see a health professional.

you could lubricate your toes with Vaseline,but the sand would remove that in no time.
