Good news. My toe didn't hurt at all throughout the day today. I used yesterday's Thursday mile to guage my toe's readiness. I was excited this morning to wake up and not feel any pain. I actually forgot about it until I left the house this morning. :)
Work was kind of rough today. I couldn't wait to lace up the shoes and hit the pavement. I'm glad I did too. I feel great! Running has helped me tremendously with the "stresses" of daily life. After a run I feel energized and it feels like the stress rubberband has been loosened a bit too. It's nice. Doesn't make sense as I read through again, but I'm leaving it. It's how I feel....and that's better!
I was only going to do another mile tonight, but decided to do a slow paced 5k and focus on my toe, seeing how it felt during the run. If at any point it would hurt I was going to just walk back, but it never hurt. In fact I ended up turning in a 40:52! My best time being a 40:37. Not too bad, considering I was focusing on my toe and how it was feeling the whole time, I never looked at the stopwatch. I had my headphones in so I never heard my splits as I achieved them, (my iPhone says my splits out loud) I wasn't going for time even! :)
Workout below....
