The only way this could be more disgusting was if there were actual toes still attached to the nails.
Gosh, what is an ultrarunner to do with all the lost and blackened toenails from those 100-milers? Why, make a necklace, of course!
I kid you not – below is a picture of Jan Ryerse’ toenail necklace that he made from the remnants of his Badwater, Western States, and other expeditions. He also takes donations if you would like to send yours in.

I mean some of those nails are green …
But I can’t avoid think if there is a necklace made of toenails of Nicole Kidman and/or Angelina Jolie … Then I want it !
Eeewwww……
That’s pretty grim. Thanks.
the longer I look at it the sicker I feel.
Sometimes, at the swanky new indoor pool around the corner from my house, while sitting in the hot tub or on the ‘bench’ in the play area, I catch myself absentmindedly picking at my toenails under the water…and letting the ‘clippings’ float away.
Sorry
I’ve been through only one complete toenail-loss catastrophe. It wasn’t even mine, but I’d never want to keep reminders of such around.
Growing your toenails long enough to have jewelry-sized clippings is just gross.
Okay, Eeewww.
umm gross. also odd.
