Causality #1

I knew it was going to happen. Before I even started running, other runners told me to be prepared. It wasn't a matter of if, it was a matter of when.

Last night, I lost a toenail (right foot, second toe). The entire nail is gone. We had gone for a short 5 mile run, much of it uphill. During the run, the nail was sore. I had a feeling it might be seeing the last of it's days. Sure enough, when we got home, I just needed to pull it back and it came off. Just like that.

Oddly, it looks so much better. It had been purple for a long time. Even a pedicure couldn't work it's magic.

1 down, 9 more to go. I definitely have runner's feet now.
