1. Today is my husband’s birthday! How is he going to celebrate? Aside from dinner out with family and friends on Friday he’s going to run 45 miles. No race. No medal. No tech tee. A run just because he can. Happy birthday Chad! Love u!
2. The winner of the NatureBox giveaway is Jen at Marathon Mom.
3. Do you have used running shoes that you no longer wear? A blogging friend shared a link-worth-mentioning for the Step Into My Sole Foundation. The non-profit foundation is a great solution for getting rid of shoes you no longer need and helping someone less fortunate. That’s a win-win!
Their mission statement:
Step Into My Sole Foundation, Inc.’s mission is to encourage individuals to donate their reusable running shoes and story to make a difference in people’s lives. Our nonprofit is composed of people from all walks of life helping those that are less fortunate.
How do you like to celebrate your birthday? Do you keep your running/workout shoes you no longer use?
happy birthday to chad!
What a great foundation! I have some running shoes I don’t need anymore. Thanks for sharing!
Hope Chad had a great birthday and enjoyed his 45 mile birthday run!
I def will! Thanks Laura!
Wow! 45 miles? Please report back and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for posting information about Step Into My Sole Foundation. I believe that I will be sending some shoes to them soon.
My birthday is Sunday and I plan on running a 5k on the beach. After reading that your husband is running 45 miles I am wondering if I should up the ante a bit. I have never run a 10k, so I will consider doing that. Maybe two 5ks. We will see 🙂
Happy early birthday. A run is a great way to celebrate!
