Ok, I think you guys will get a kick out of this one. Today I had planned some time trials with my training partner who has literally been sprinting a month now and he is at 12.4ish hand timed. So, we planned to do (3) 30’s, (3) 60’s, and (3) 100’s. I do my first 30m and I’m pissed because I got a 4.08 hand and I was absolutely positive I was running below 4’s.I do my second at 4.11 and my third at 3.95 so I am kinda getting happy. We get to the 60’s and Im stinking it up, from this point on we were runing into a massive headwind, but I figured hey we will go on with the trials. I come in 7.42, and we decide to go straight to the hundred because he was on a time schedule. I get a 11.67 hand and Im pissed becuase I’m usually in the 11.3-11.5 range for hand (at this point last year). So, I’m bummed at this point, we finish the workout and I’m taking off my spikes and my friend rich says, “dude, what the hell is on your toe?” I look down and I have a FREAKIN SAFETY PIN STUCK INTO MY TOE! I said to my self DAMN! I didn’t even feel it happen!..lol! When I pulled this thing out it hurt pretty bad, much worse than a needle for drawing blood. It actually felt like a sandspur (living in Florida). I am baffled that this thing was stuck one inch into my toe and I didn’t even feel it!!!
uhhh, thats messed up. You should be careful with those type of things though (i should know).
In the 7th grade on the last day of school as soon as I got home, I stepped on a pencil as I was changing my clothes (pencil was in my pocket and I stepped out of my shorts) and stepped directly into it. My first reaction was a surge of pain, but it wasnt that bad. I said to myself that it would be bleeding everywhere in 30 seconds. I hobbled over to my bed and jumped on it, and then looked down at my foot…I saw a little hole with NO blood and a bunch of black inside.
To make a long story short, I waited in the emergency room for an hour, had a 90 minute surgery (doctor turned bottom of foot literally inside out to get the lead), and I couldn’t walk for 2 weeks. What a start to a 13 year olds summer…
how the hell did a safety pin get stuck to your toe? Maybee someone put it there while you were sleeping?
Ahh, which brings us to the tip of the day. Never store your bib number sheet in your spike bag. There is a 0.001% chance one of the safety pins may come off, get stuck in your shoe, and pierce you! Gahhhhhh!
Thats what I wanna know…
LMAO, what a good story!!! Hilarious! Now how the hell you didn’t feel it gawd knows! 
You must have been very focused on your running!
