Those Shoes

Disaster of a day. Had the best of intentions, a double run, one easy-one not, cut up a quick video, get some fascia work done between summer squalls.

None of it happened.

Got into some set up, coding, preference, compression wars with the new OS and apps, so what was to be a two hour Kung Fu Lake Stevens 70.3 teaser, ended up taking all day. Life can do that to ya.

Had some decent conversations with THU (the higher ups) and things are sailing along smoothly, albeit slow. Still, I kinda see myself as a speed guy. Get it to me (video) NOW. Cut fast, cut often, get the goods out there and let the audience decide what is more important, the news, or the way it's presented.

Kinda like running shoes. We all know that we don't really need them, and that in many, MANY, cases the main attribute is actually the main deterrent. Motion control? Major band-aide. Trying to correct over pronation is like putting bigger tires on one side of your car. I can go on. Yet Phil Knight continues to laugh on a daily basis as he drives his Yellow & Green Armoured Car to the bank. Running shoes are over $125 bucks a pair. And they suggest that you replace them after 250-300 miles. OMG, somebody get ME a sponsor.

So these new fangled 'Toning Shoes' had me baffled at first step. You're kidding, right? Somebody is actually going to buy into that? No, and yes.

I have said it a thousand times, and most likely will say it another K, "Whatever it takes to get people out there, is good".

Just not for me (in those shoes).
