KT Tape Kinesiology Athletic Tape

I bought a roll of the KT tape for a rather unorthodox use - to prevent blisters on my feet during a marathon walk. After having been taped at my Dr's office with it for problems with my ankle, and seeing how water resistant it is (stays on while swimming and showering) I thought it might hold up during the walk. It did the trick! I applied a strip on the soles of both feet and it never moved thru the whole 26.2 miles. It looked the same after as it did before, and more importantly, it prevented blisters! What I don't like is that this brand of tape has a 'split' down the middle to allow you to apply it in different ways. I didn't want a thin strip - I wanted the full width strip. I ended up applying the two halves side-by-side and it worked ok. As for its intended use, I have been using it on my ankle for a few weeks now and have seen some improvement, but nothing miraculous.
