does anyone have any suggestions for a broken toe... I really like running, but I think it is out of the question.

    Whenever I had a broken toe I soked it in Epson Salts to help. Take tylonal for swelling and ice it. That is all you can do until it heals.

    I've had a couple...ouch! Sorry to hear of your pain!
    I would try cycling for a week or two, maybe elliptical, but that might be iffy. I would take a 2 week break from running then give it a shot and see how you do.
    A doctor won't do anything other than buddy tape it to the nearest neighboring toe. Tylenol for pain worked best for me.
    They hurt like the ****ens for such a little bone, but do heal quite quickly!
    Good luck!
