I read the page “Project Donate A Shoe” a few days ago and wanted to reply on this.

I was given a pair of Asics Gel Landrith’s from late 2007 that I’ve never used. I could ship this to you or hold it until you arrive for the SF Marathon in August. This is a great project you are doing.

The New Balance store where I work has a program regarding used shoes. We work with an antique store called Sujaro who helps us clean the shoes. In turn, Sujaro sends the shoes to parts of Africa for the needy. In 2007 alone, Sujaro and our store sent over 900 pairs of shoes.

By chance, are you running the half marathon this Sunday? I’ll be running a 15K trail race in the Oakland hills. Take care and have a good weekend!
