They were very inexpensive (compared to quality running shoes), and they served me very well!
In fact, I got along with them far better than I do with my new Asics that were double the price.
(Other than losing a toenail 8 times).
(Is it weird that I want to string my toenails on a necklace?)
(I promise I throw them away).
(I just think about the necklace thing each time one falls off).
These shoes saw me through my beginnings of running. I ran hundreds of miles in them and quite a few races: 3-4 5Ks, Ragnar Colorado, a 10K, a half-marathon, the Dirty Dash, and the Spartan Race to name a few.
They have been wonderful running companions, but sadly, the Spartan Race marked their final journey. With holes in the toes, I gave them one last turn in the washer so they'd go out clean...ish, and then tossed them in an emotional moment of goodbye.
You and your toenails and their necklace gotta knock it off.
