Yikes.... rememebr to put a barrier between the ice and the body next time. Usually I wrap an ace bandage once or twice then put the ice down then finish wrapping the ace to hold the ice in place. It's icing and compression at once AND you don't need to hold the ice.

The stupidest thing I ever did was sign up for a marathon.

Seriously, my first marathon led to my second, which led to my 3rd, 4th, yada, yada yada, 10 years later, 148 marathons and I am still signing up.

Last year I read about a Iowan running in a Wisconsin ultra where he got frostbite in temps 15 below zero. He gave 2 toes to the cause, but he won the race!!!

To get frost bite in-doors. That's a good one. I hope they don't have to amputate.

I once picked a race over family time with the wife.  (Noticed I said "once")
