I hurt my toe when I took that miss-step in my half-marathon on Sunday. It felt wrong the rest of the race, and swelled up like a baloon as soon as I stopped running. I gave it Monday off to rest then got back to pounding the roads on Tuesday. I went out for a quick four miler, although my pace didn't suffer from the lingering injury, I know that it would have made a difference had I went much further. After mile 3 I could feel every other step (the ones that I was landing on my left foot) so intensely. I should probably rest it until the weekend, then plan on cutting my long run back if it starts to flare up, but I will probably go out on a run tonight and see how it goes.
