A Runner's Memories Of Effort And Adventure Are Evoked By,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Though I own nothing comparable to Paavo Nurmi's gilded spiked running shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which are enshrined in a glass case in Helsinki's Suomen Urheilumuseo (Sports Museum of Finland), I do have a collection of vintage running shoes.
Mine are arrayed under and around my bed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 19 pairs in all,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], gray and red and gold and white and blue,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], branded with the Nike swoosh, the New Balance "N" and the three stripes of Adidas. There is even a solitary pair of French-made blue and white Patricks, which gave me nothing but blisters and grief.
I only wear three pairs or so and have never won a race in any of them,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but for reasons which passeth understanding, I am unable to discard the rest of the worn-out, sweat-stained shoes that bore me faithfully, if foolishly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], on long training runs and races from a mile to my usual run-and-walk marathon.
All the heels are worn down on the outside. The shoes are streaked by the tidal salt stains of ancient runs in foul weather. The leather is sweat-stiffened and shabby,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Some are holed through where a left big toe was wont to protrude,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
The nostalgia elicited by these raggedy shoes overwhelms me with a spell at once satisfying and melancholy. I am in thrall to a moribund assemblage of Nike Waffle Trainers, LDVs, Elites, and a pair each of Bostons, Internationalists and Cortezes; New Balance 420s and 730s; and a pair each of Adidas SL-72s,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Roms and TRX Trainers.
They conjure up memories of runs on sandy Florida loops and along fields of six-foot-high raspberry canes overlooking a Norwegian fjord, through the morning misty green of Hyde Park, up rocky Vermont hills and around and around the asphalt parking lots of airport hotels. They carried me over hard-packed island beaches off the Georgia coast, through the birch and pine forests of Finland, tilting over the wood chips of Pre's Trail in Eugene, Ore.,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], through the familiar streets and parks of my hometown, New York,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and over the fantasy resilience of Tartan and Chevron tracks,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], red and green and full of daydreams.
I even wish I had saved my first pair of running shoes. They were circa 1949,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], no-nonsense soft black leather-kangaroo skin, said the advertisement, which I must admit gave me a twinge-with long irreplaceable spikes.
Ever since, I have been on a part-time quest for the grail of the perfect shoe: something at once so comfortable and light and durable and magical that it would confer the speed of a Tommie Smith and the endurance of a Ron Clarke on an ordinary runner. Such as yours truly. I have always been partial to the fond illusion that running shoes maketh the man.
My spiked-shoe days, such as they were, are long gone. Now I'm a training-shoe runner (though training for what, I'm not sure), caring more for shock absorption than miracles.
But my high school daughter and son keep me up with the state of the art, racing in colorful contrasting spikes. Sal's pair is a garish display of forest- and mint-green and orange,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], titled the Nike Vainqueur; Frankie's is a pair of yellow Tiger Spartans or a feather-light white and pale-blue creation known as the Nike Zoom Tasman.
