But I suppose it is worth it when you consider that I have the record time at my school for a 4K (that's 2.5 miles for you non-metric folk). While my toes give me problems, I can honestly say that I'm glad I don't have it as bad as some other people I know. I never got shin splints, which most people do when they start running, never twisted or sprained an ankle while running on the trails or on ice/snow, and I've never had any kind of injury where I wasn't able to run. So thanks, God, for my awesome bones and muscles, not to mention the fact that I rarely get ill. That means I get to run every stinking day. Horray? At least I have awesome calves.
Sometimes I get really random cramps in my feet/ toes. Like before a meet a few months ago for track I had a terrible tightness along the inside of one of my feet, which stopped in, like, four seconds. Then once on the other foot, then never again; and this was the day before the meet, after an easy work out! At least I have great shoes and an awesome runner's tan, among others...
In conclusion:
Now I just have to work on my core!
