But it must earn you respect in certain circles (just looking at the bright side).sea legs girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782712411873234071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-83436914469533507592012-09-19T18:43:22.754+02:002012-09-19T18:43:22.754+02:00PPC - I am so glad I am not the only Roxanne fan h...PPC - I am so glad I am not the only Roxanne fan here.

I don't think it is at all connected to the toe.<br /><br />2. As far as broken toes go - it might just be a hairline fracture but it is definitely not out of alignment. And it only hurts ever so slightly. It's more swollen than painful. I think toe fractures come in lots of flavors - but if I have athritis in it years down the road, I will hate myself.sea legs girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782712411873234071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-54021409139996021652012-09-19T17:15:01.836+02:002012-09-19T17:15:01.836+02:00http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlUu27JJ4Tchttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlUu27JJ4TcPiccolaPineConehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09520539255908849462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-41483734524730839002012-09-19T15:43:32.959+02:002012-09-19T15:43:32.959+02:00I was going to echo Danni's comment.

Because I didn't get it checked and let it heal badly, these days it aches from pressure from my shoes when I do steep descents, and also blisters on top during long runs or hikes. Badly healed broken toes can haunt you for life! But I also agree with Danni that if you can actually put weight on it without seeing stars, it's likely not badly broken.

If it is broken, you are guaranteeing that it will heal wrong which may just cause you chronic problems in the future. A rational person would at least get an x-ray before running on it. But you are not rational so hey. (Or maybe you are rational but just let your exercise addiction override your rational side).Dannihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02201053516148787578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-48668813111170849492012-09-18T22:06:33.578+02:002012-09-18T22:06:33.578+02:00have to say i agree w steve q, the hip was probabl...have to say i agree w steve q, the hip was probably from running funny... though it seems to me you had hip problems prior to breaking your toe??<br />{nag} also, if you're serious about going for a 10 km track pr... taper! just a little! you know how you said it just wasn't your day when you ran your 19:36 5 km? if you don't taper, it won't be your day. {/nag}<br />finally best use of a Roxanne quote ever.<br />"I would rather be with the people in this town than with the finest people in the world!"PiccolaPineConehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09520539255908849462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-24006898042444320722012-09-18T21:58:36.830+02:002012-09-18T21:58:36.830+02:00The toe might've stopped hurting just because ...The toe might've stopped hurting just because it got numb and the hip problem might be from compensating - injuries tend to go up the leg and switch sides.<br /><br />I read The Hours and I think I liked it at the time, but can't remember any of it now. Then again, I think Woolf's "To the Lighthouse" and "The Waves" are the same, because they both make me think of rowboats.<br /><br />Now I really need to explore the space with cowbell.SteveQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16943650844671498074noreply@blogger.com
