Do your toenails break at the gym ?

I thought it was due to having pedicures, but I'm pretty sure that it's the intense pressure from the jump rope class that's causing a split right in the middle. And it's nasty!

Anyone ?

    I guess I'm freakish. And this is at least the third spring/summer that I'm an only one without a pedicure .....

    Just how long are these toenails?

    I haven't had mine split and break like that but I have had them turn black and fall off. I think it was from the friction of running and my toes rubbing up against the top of my tennis shoes. I recently bought new shoes and haven't had it happen since. Maybe the shoes you're wearing don't fit quite right.
