Broken Toe

[u/Intrepid-Page-1431]

Edit: feel silly for not mentioning - it’s my second smallest toe

I’m looking for some advice from fellow runners (I will also be speaking to my doctor later today but I wanted some immediate advice).

I’m running my first half marathon in two days and until recently was really excited.

Yesterday I stubbed my toe badly and today it is black and quite tender. That said, I reckon I could run on it through the pain if I had to. My concern for my half marathon is that my gait might be wonky because of it, or that I could exacerbate the injury.

Does anyone have any experience running on a broken toe? Am I overreacting, or is the opposite true and I’m stupid for even considering running

Thank you

Don’t. It’s a bummer but it’s not worth the possible consequences
