The boring bit, but it's background: I have several pairs of Saucony Trigon shoes, which I have always loved and always have in a size 7.5. Except one pair, the lightweights, which I got in a 7 coz that's all they had and my normal shoe is only a six anyway. I have worn these 7s for about 250 miles with no problems, but never more than about eight miles at a time.
the issue: On Sunday I wore them for a three-hour shuffle. No problems at all. Until Monday. And today my big toes STILL feel as though someone's attacked them with a hammer.
the question: There is no visible bruising. Have I got away with it, or could they still go black and eventually fall off?

Try ice cubes on top of your nails, until you can feel the cold in your toes.
Sometimes though they are just sore for a while and then get better, so you may be lucky.
Fank you. I fink.
[peers at pretty li'l pink sparkly toenails in a worried sort of way]
:-(
Small downside is that you'll walk like a penguin in them - but penguins seem to manage ?
I regularly lose 2 toenails on each foot even on short mileage (shoes fine, I just run funny I think).
I now have an amazing array of dark-coloured nail polishes that mean I can live in denial.
By the time they fall off a new one has grown underneath.
Sorry not much help there. Mine don't go very black but I still lose them.

:oD
Keep us posted ;-)
nails off !!!
:'o(
See - wouldnt have been a problem had you listened to me !
To my horror when I got home it had gone!!! hope it wasnt in his car,wonder why I didnt see him again???
Now then - they're just beginning to feel a little bit better. Still sore, but pushing them gently into the carpet doesn't make me squeak.
Would it be silly to go for a run tomorrow?
I think it's a bit much, actually, when you've sold your toenails to the devil and they use toenails on the homepage and it's someone ELSE's toenails they use.

i also had to pierce behind nail of 3 toes after Sundays race(red liquid) but it relieved the pain .
i have lost around 6 toe nails no idea why as shoes are plenty big enough!!
i do paint them so you cant notice when i have sandals on.

Progression
yesterday took the plunge and removed nail varnish. Left one's a bit bruised and was quite sore, right one very bruised (though not black) and almost too sore to apply enough pressure to remove varnish. The nail is being pushed off the bed by a big lumpy bit. Very hot and throbby and walking difficult. (
This morning - not nearly so sore, but it's too dark in hre to see the bruising.
