marathon PR and a toenail question

Ran the Flying Pig this morning in 3:50:29! 10 minute PR and 23 minute improvement on the same course last year. I'm thrilled, especially considering how freaking hot and humid it was. 90% humidity at the start, near 80 at the finish. Anyway, i'm pretty sure i'm losing a toenail. Do I just leave it alone until it falls off? I can still run with a missing toenail, right?

  • Way to go! You crushed that! Very impressive. :)
  • Excellent! Great job in difficult weather.

    I had a few questionable toenails that never fell off. Just left them alone to see what happened. Be nice to your piggies ;-)

  • Awesome job on your PR! I lost both big toe nails when I was playing tennis in HS, just leave them alone, they will fall off. I continued to run and play tennis after both toenails fell off.

  • Nice job! That's a fantastic PR!! As the others have said, leave the toenail alone. I just kept trimming mine & kept darker polish on my toes. By the time it actually fell off, the new one had already grown out underneath. Lol Score!
