Putting Your Best Foot Forward

There is something sad about having to throw away an old pair of running shoes. I do not 'run' in my shoes, but I do put a lot of miles on them and in so doing, I get rather attached to them. There is nothing that feels or fits better than well worn shoes, especially the ones that never required that 'breaking in' period. I could list a dozen cliches that would fit (no pun intended) the picture above, but let it be said that when I wore the new ones for the first time yesterday, I almost threw them out instead of the old ones.
