DIY hiking wool?
I use hiker's wool. You don't need to add lanolin as sheep's wool naturally has lanolin. I wouldn't use raw unwashed sheep's wool because you could risk infection (sheep's woo is quite dirty). What you want is carded wool rovings or ropings, or wool that's been washed and ready for spinning. You...- AnnieS

Trail Running Shoes
I'm a trail runner. I run and walk 100s of km in trail running shoes on paved trails, dirt trails and downright gnarly trails. Unless they are cheap knock offs they should last the entire Camino.- AnnieS

Sock problem
I swear by WrightSock Merino Stride 1/4 socks. They are double layer with inner synthetic layer and soft, fine merino blend outer layer. I wear them in Canada winter AND summer for running. I'll be wearing them for walking the Camino in September/October. Never had a blister, and I've run 50 km...- AnnieS

What blister prevention techniques did you use?
I just heard about hikers wool and have ordered some. A friend who has hiked the Camino a few times used to get bad blisters but said since she started using hikers wool she hasn't had a problem. Hope it works well for me too!- AnnieS
