By Su Reid-St. John<\/a> I do a lot of fitness walking and Nordic walking<\/a>—and I do it all in a single pair of shoes. I know I’m supposed to replace my kicks every 500 miles or so, so that I’m not pounding the pavement without proper support and cushioning (an excellent recipe for injury).<\/p>\n But the thing is, I don’t walk a constant number of miles per week, so unless I write down my mileage after every workout (which is just not going to happen), I never really know how many miles I’ve accumulated.<\/p>\n Plus, that 500 number is an average—it doesn’t take into account my weight or how much wear I put on my shoes. By default, I usually do the Big Switch every August. But is that often enough—especially since I’m pretty hard on my shoes, wearing away the outer heel as if using a high-powered sander? Or am I replacing them too soon, thereby wasting hard-earned cash? A girl’s gotta know!<\/p>\n
Every once in a while I come across a really cool gadget that seems so obviously useful, I wonder why it took so long for someone to invent it. The Shoe Odometer<\/a> is that kind of gadget.<\/p>\n
