I had my toenail removed on Wednesday - strict instructions not to walk for a week
Presumably this is to let it heal and reduce risk of infection? Even if it's not hurting a few weeks of following doctor's orders won't mean you suddenly forget how to run. Take it easy, get back into it steadily and enjoy your long trail runs through the crisp winter! Guilt trip your friends into joining you when it's -10 out because you missed the ones they are planning now!
I know I won't forget how to run - I'm just bored at the prospect of being sedentary for too long! Good idea about the guilt trips, I'll get working on my persuasive techniques!
