A Plug for Soles4Souls

Soles4Souls. What a great cause! TEEM Performance Training's shoe drive is over...for now. But, it will return with more of a twist. There has been a lot of talk among the kinesiological world on minimalist shoes. That is, shoes that minimize the distance/thickness between the sole of your foot and the ground and still remain effective. But, you may not hear a lot of words about what to do with a shoe after it has been worn out. After its physical effectiveness has vanished.

You know you have always wanted to recycle your shoes. Instead of chucking them in the trash make your shoes useful again!

...And yes, those are shoes that were collected.

An organization like Soles4Souls assists impoverished individuals in a manner that, firsthand, might skip your mind. I must admit that I never knew anyone could recycle shoes until 2008. Well, it's 2011 and the public should be all the way in on paying it forward with soles. Think about all of the pairs of shoes that your buddy or best gal pal owns and all of the pairs that a celebrity or athlete owns. Where do those shoes go when they're worn out? The answer is easier now.

Picture support of Soles4Souls as a part of improving your wellness. The three-headed monster of health, fitness, and wellness reciprocally support each other - your health can support your fitness - your fitness can support your wellness - and the cycle works in reverse.

Be fit,
Derek
