Nov 9

30 Days of November - "Shoes" and Day 9 of My Personal 30 Days in Manual Mode Challenge!

My husband, Doug, is an avid runner and has been since before
we were married in 1984. I periodically have him donate his
old running shoes to charity (they are only recommended for
500 miles of use) but somehow they accumulate quicker than I
can make this suggestion! I counted at least 15 pair tonight.
Here is a sampling of some of them (and yes, I have an odd pair!)

Great idea for "shoes", no one said one pair only. I doubt there are three pairs in my whole house if you don't count casual moccasins.

.....and what are the doctor's bills for your hubby's knees? Running is hard on the knees!
Great capture of the multi-colored pairs + 1! :)

The runners always need new shoes... Have you added up the $$$'s in this pile???

Only one black shoe? :) They are all so colorful. Good for him for running. These would be good in an extreme closeup shot too.
