Broken toe?

Seriously, I think I just broke my toe. Maybe toes.

Channelling Shawn's incident with Dixie the cat, I stepped over Jet the dog. Large black doberman is next to my husband's large black shoe, which I don't see because it's dark and blends with the dog. Stepped into the back of the shoe which rolled over trapping half of my toes inside. Heard a little popping/cracking sound. My pinky toe seems fine but toes 3&4 hurt just sitting there and hurt a lot when I stand. I can flex the toes without pain but I can't curl them up. Seems to be centered in the last joint. Either way they are definitely too sore to ride or run today, that's for sure.

AHHHHHHHHHH! I JUST GOT BACK TO RUNNING!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

And I ran into one of the guys who normally places top 3 in the local sprints. He offered to ride with me this morning and possibly start training with me on his easy days. Only I can't bear to put on my cycling shoe. AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And I have a 2 day contract to stand on a bridge all day looking for manatees. I leave in 6 hours. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Maybe I'll luck out and I just jammed it up pretty bad. On the plus side, my swimming is about to make a massive come back.

The mental pain is worth than the physical! Oh dear, I hope it will get better VERY SOON!

Good grief - the IT band wasn't enough, huh? Well, I sure hope nothing is busted - I'm looking forward to having you at Escape.

Oh shit. I hope it's not broken.
swim, ice, elevate, heal quickly.
