I agree with Nick. For me, I doing think it is my place to tell other people how to run or what shoes to wear. My Hubby won't ever try barefoot running and I am okay with that. If it were me, I would donate them to a cause I believed in.
But if I donate them, am I not being just a wee bit hypocritical if I believe (as I do) that running shoes are the root of all (running) evil?

Well, according to information I received from the race organizers today, the charity to which the shoes will be donated is Soles4Souls. I can't see anything objectionable about this organization, particularly since they donate to disaster relief areas where folks probably need shoes just to survive the conditions. So, from a strictly utilitarian point of view, sending my old shoes there isn't too problematic.
I had the same consternation when it came to giving out candy at Halloween. Giving kids little brightly wrapped pieces of sugar and fat doesn''t seem like such a good idea, but I also didn't want to become the house that gave away pencils, either. So, I split the difference and gave Utz organic cheese puffs. There are just so darn few vegan Halloween treats out there. Maybe I've identified a niche business....

Heed Migangelo's warning: those raw eggs might come flying back at you!Eggs are both tasty and nutritious. Uncooked ones would allow for them to prepare and serve them as they choose.
Hey, I was just at the booze shop picking up some stocking stuffers when I saw Sierra Nevada's Narwhal Imperial Stout. I wonder if our dreamscapes brought it into being? Or are the narwhals a new cultural meme I've been slow to pick up on?I don't think I approve of all these dreameecumingsandgoings.
