Just ran a painful 8 miles in my old NB 851s.  It seems I've developed a bunion on the joint of my left big toe.  I think, since I've been running in Mizunos, which have plenty of toe room and a looser fit, my bunion could develop in peace without causing problems.  My 851s are a little tighter in the forefoot area and rubbed it pretty hard.  I developed a blister and put some moleskin on it and my run was great as far as time: 1:18:55 at 9:51 per mile.  But the Bunion was noticeably painful.  To top it off I just ordered new running shoes which may also be a bad fit for a bunion.  I'll do what I can to treat it and read up on it.  Any runners out there that care to offer advice, please feel free.  I hope I don't have to resort to surgery.  It's not a big bunion but it's noticeable.
