Screw your shoes!
It's another 4 Feet Running video special! In this instructional tutorial, Nik and Dan make screw-shoes: they drill screws into the bottoms of their running shoes to make cleats for winter running. This is where they got the idea: http://www.skyrunner.com/screwshoe.htm
Enjoy!

Run Photo of the Day 12.24.10: Merry Christmas Eve
Went for a nice little 5-miler today with the dogs in the ice and snow. I thought I'd celebrate the season by wearing my Santa hat.
The route took us by my old high school. Stanley found something very interesting over on the athletic fields.
Hundreds of Canada geese, all hanging around on the icy, snowy fields.
Only a few dozen meters away, we came upon a bunch of broken vinyl records tossed along the side of the road. Good stuff, too: Benny Goodman live at Carnegie Hall and Ray Charles. There were pieces of about five or six records that I saw, on both sides of the fence. Anybody who (a) litters and (b) treats jazz and R&B like this deserves to be on Santa's Naughty List.

- Nik and Dan ain't afraid of no ghosts
- You asked for it, you got it! More of that classic "4 Feet Running ear-splitting traffic noise roar" you love so well
- They talk about a few great developments in their running since their last episode
- Go on a Gallowalk with the Zen Runner, Maddy, and Dan
- What else do 13 runners talk about when they get together? Shoes, shoes, and more shoes
- Everyone nearly freezes to death ... in Florida
- Nik survives almost a whole day entirely on Boost liquid
- A little bit of a short leg at the end due to a calculation error, but after 12 hours of running nobody's complaining
- Stay tuned for Part 2, coming very soon, where Nik and Dan go over their 2010 year in review!
Pictures to come!
