Shoes to give....

Hello Everyone-

First let me say hello to all in open discussion land. :) I have been a long time lurker, a couple of years I guess, and finally decided to come out of lurkerville with the start of STS. I have faithfully read the posts here daily and have enjoyed learning about your lives and have learned a great deal of great information on health and fitness from your posts. So let me say thank you for that. :D

Now the reason for my post tonight.... Like many of you, I tend to buy multiple pairs of workout shoes when I find something that works well, so needless to say I have more than my fair share of shoes in my closet not being put to good use.

I have over the last year switched entirely to asics due to my own foot rotation issues and years of abuse to my joints that now require different cushioning/structures than previously. So now I have a few great new-in-box styles of shoes waiting for a new home. I was going to just donate them locally, but then thought I would like them to go those of you on here that would like them and put them to good use as intended.

I do not want anything for them, I would just like to do something nice for some people. So if you are interested, please PM me with a pair you are interested in and I will see about sending a pair out. :D

This is what I have new to give...

1 Pair, size 7, Nike Air Run Dual D II in Lgt blue/white/silver

2 Pair, size 7, Nike Rhythmic Shox in Lgt blue/white

2 Pair, size 6 1/2, Ryka Enlight II

Thanks,
Mary
 
Wow, Mary! What a nice thing to do. We all probably have things we could "reuse" around here...you've got me thinking!!!

I'm not a size 7 :( Too bad for me!!!

Thanks for doing such a nice thing for someone!!!

Hi Mary: I just wanted to say that this is GREAT of you to do this! With all the economic woes around the country, this could be just the ticket for someone who is struggling a bit financially and could really use a new pair of shoes to get them either back into exercise or at least keep them going!

Giving is such a wonderful feeling when you expect nothing in return! Bravo! We need more kind souls such as yourself!
 
You are so sweet! I'm a 7 but I usually have to try Nikes first, and I sometimes need a 7.5 as I think they run a bit narrow and my feet are a bit wide. I KNOW you'll have some very happy takers though.

Okay, the shox are spoken for now :D

That leaves the 2 pairs of enlights and the 1 pair of nike running shoes for any takers.

:)
 
Mary,

That is so kind of you.

Extraordinary! Good for you.

I think, (because of you) that it would be nice if all of us did something like that. I'll have to think about what I want to give away and get back with all of you. How wonderful (putting my thinking cap on).

OK, I thought about it. I have a couple of resistance tubes. Anyone need these? Pm me.

Alright, the shox and rykas are now taken, but the nike running shoes are still available. Send a PM if interested.

This is really fun to do, I only wish I had enough to give everyone who asks, oh well, maybe if I win the lottery someday. ;)
 
I don't need new sneakers. I just bought 2 pair of Rykas.

I just wanted to say how wonderfully generous and thoughtful you are!
Warms my heart:)
