I have a pair of bright pink Nike Free 5.0 walking shoes for sale. They are size 9. I wore them once, and realized they are a half size too small for me. I paid $120 for them, but would be happy to sell them for $75. Nike Free 5.0 are extremely lightweight shoes that feel almost as if you're barefoot. If yo...

That the company who organizes this event for the PMH is based out of California, charges an absurd amount to do so, and will not disclose the actual figures going to PMH out of the funds raised. Can some one point me in the direction of some documentation to prove otherwise? Thanks!

I know that some of you have either walked or crewed in Ottawa (this year) or Montreal past years. A good friend of mine just announced that his wedding will be Sept 10th 2011!!
