Impact on footware...
I said a while back that I'd refrain from posting ghoulish toenail / blister shots. Shoes and socks take a real pounding too. I can't wait to get back to wearing something other than cut up sneakers and vaseline soaked socks.

Looks like your feet have been in your socks for so long that the socks now stand by themselves!!
Wow, what a fashion statement. You give new meaning to the term dirty socks. All the bleach in the world is not going to ever make them appear white! Keep on, trudging on... Boomer Sooner!
They've seen some miles, but seem to be doing the trick! There has got to be a sneaker hall of fame somewhere just waiting for them. Hang tough! Margaret
I think I'd rather see the toenail/blister pictures. I'm sure the shoe companies appreciate how you're helping out their bottom line in these hard economic times.

AS someone once said, "If the shoe fits..."
After the race you might want to market a line of open-toed sneakers (Secker's Sandals?) while you write up your memoirs.

Please tell me you will not be bringing those socks home, my laundry skills are just not up to the task.

Don't worry Russel has to pass Homeland Security.

I hear there's a toxic waste disposal site in Nevada that will take those socks!
