Follow me in my adventures to becoming a "hard-core" triathlete!! After completeing my first Tri last fall, I can't wait to compete in San Diego this October to honor my Mom's battle with Ovarian Cancer.

MISSING: Toenail, last seen inside my running shoe, attached to my foot

After my long run yesterday, I was pretty sore. I decided it was a good idea to go on a short run today. It was really nasty all day, and for some reason when I came outside to run my 2.1 miles, the sun came out!! It was literally only out for a couple of minutes, and was gone by the time I was home. My foot kind of hurt yesterday, and I wore heels today at work because I had an interview. My little toe is kind of all curled from dancing and running, so that toenail has a propensity to fall off, and has fallen off after long races and runs before, GROSS. I was a bit surprised, but mostly sad when I pulled my shoe off today after my run and my toenail was missing again. I'm not sure how many times it will grow back, but it's almost summer AND a pedicure is kind of difficult without ten toenails. YOU'RE welcome, Mom.
