Wallpaper: Undead Shoes
Ran the Warrior Dash today, and by pure luck, I managed not to maim or kill myself.
The nature of the event (obstacles, mud, water, barbed wire, junkyard metal, etc) makes it a perfect opportunity to "retire" a pair of running shoes, but all is not lost, because even though they might be ruined for the purpose of running, there's still a lot of practical use remaining. One of the cooler aspects of the event is participation in the Green Sneakers program, which aims to bring these shoes back from the brink of destruction, clean them up, and distribute them to people around the world.
