I’m naming my running shoes after famous couples

Rhett and Scarlet

I have decided to name my running shoes after famous couples.  I swear each pair of shoes I buy has its own personality, style, and idiosyncrasies, just like couples do.  I don’t yet know if there are genetic predispositions that an entire brand line shares or not.  For instance, maybe all New Balance shoes are graceful and exquisitely perfect (Fred and Ginger). Maybe all Brooks are fatally flawed even though they appear perfect together (Rhett and Scarlet).  I simply haven’t been running long enough to tell.  But my shoes relate, adjust, and react to me and I’m convinced they even try to please or annoy. And they definitely conspire with each other. Sometime for and sometimes against. So stay tuned as I discover which brands and styles are friend or foe, soul-mate or nemesis.
