Since I'm all rested up, I hit the gym early this morning (my usual time of 4:30). I ran a happy 6 miles (without any heel pain) and ended the 1 1/2 hours of the workout with some leg weights.
My heel pain is almost completely gone. I feel it every once in a while, but nothing that will stop me. I'm still icing, elevating, and taking nsaids. Another thing that has started is that I think I may loose my first toe nail. I've gotten black nails before, but they've all survived. This nail is so little (which is not normal) and of course bruised. The joys of being a runner. With all the injuries I've had and some pain I've gone through and the mental games I have to play with myself, I would never give it up. I love every moment (high or low) of running.
Have you ever lost a nail? Is it painful? Does it grow back? Do you just pain where the nail should be? How do you make your bacon?
