It only takes one runner with shoes that he/she cannot part with and who decides to donate to Shoes to Success to fill up the back seat of my car!
I admit, my car is not huge, but still- it was a most amazing morning at the VHTRC Women's Half Marathon when a runner instructed me to drive to his car as he had so many shoes.
Fortunately there was a bit of space left in the car for the other 8 pairs doanted by another runner.
The shoes will soon find homes en masse over the next few weeks with a variety of events at school.
The genuine kindness of runners and athletes alike is a true testament to all that they are and all that is wondeful in the world!
Mil Gracias.
Fantastic! I will remember to do this when i eventually have the money to replace mine. Right now i ahve two boxes of stuff going to the charity shop, but no trainers.
