Run, Walk, Show ... How Do You Use Running Shoes?
"These are my new shoes. They're good shoes. They won't make you rich like me, they won't make you rebound like me, they definitely won't make you handsome like me. They'll only make you have shoes like me. That's it." ~ From a Charles Barkley commercial ~ |

Tell us, and all dNeero-ites, your whackiest running shoe story ... if you don't have one, then dream one up!
HAve you seen a dead toe nail? Yaiks! But I got one when I bought my new pair of running shoes. I enjoyed my body combat class notwithstanding the pain to find out that my big toe turned red. After few days, it turned black and seemingly dead. Several months have passed and I guess it is now resurrecting. Haha. Well, it still grows though and half of it now is normal. But i still need to paint it, else it looks like a black snail. Eeew...
