I did a long run in August and I guess I must have been hitting my toes. I didn't notice until later when my toes were hurting/throbbing. Then there were blood blisters underneath, making the nails bulge. Four of my toes were red, like they were painted. Then they turned grey, like dead eyeballs. The swelling went down, but the nails came loose. I've got two left. I'm shedding my exoskeleton, like a cicada!
A lot of runners just lance it themselves. I opted to just let the swelling go away on its own. Toes are kinda gross. I don't hate feet, but I don't understand the attraction, either. Especially women's feet. After they take off those sexy shoes or boots they jame their feet into, there's ridges of calluses and kibes.
well, when my sister was 5, she lost her big toenail,and the goddamn Toenail fairy came and gave her $10. The going rate for teeth from the Tooth fairy was $1. I was so pissed.

I'm honestly sorry you lost your toenails. That's got to hurt.
