Good Ideas For Runners
Good Idea #1, Recycle those old shoes and raise money for Variety Club
When you've buying a new pair of running shoes from us, what do you do with those old ones?
Why not recycle them? We now have recycling bins
from the The European Recycling Company
in all our shops.
If your shoes have still got sole they could do a second lap
drop them in our handy bin to help some other chap.
Running shoes, squash, cross-training, tennis,
bring them all in, says our MD Dennis.
Course we’ll have to stop the Boss from late-night bin-raiding -
he’d love to spruce them up so he can retail them!
It’s green, it’s eco-friendly. and it helps kids too
'cause there’s money for Variety Club in those old shoes.
Good Idea #2, Make the most of Late Night Opening
Your feet swell during the day, so the end of the day is a good time to get your new running shoes fitted.
Check your local U&R shop to find out which nights they open late.
(PS if you want the full benefit of this, please come along at least 30 minutes
before closing time.)
Good Idea #3, Follow a Training Plan
