I do need a new pair of running shoes. ;)

I have flat feet. New Balance 998 works fine for me. I get 2 to 3 years from a pair. The ratty ones go to a pile for doing yard work.

Headline: people are burning their New Balance sneakers AFTER they purchase them.

Which means I’m just going to have to go out and buy another set of New Balance sneakers in commemoration of their political stance.
