Shoe Salesman

Yes, this running related.

Jim and I were in Madison today and made a stop at a New Balance store so Jim could get a new pair of running shoes. He was fairly good about the "certified fit specialist" that assisted him until when he was handing back Jim's credit card he asked "How long is that marathon you are running?". Jim responded with "What?" because he was so astounded that the guy asked the question in the first place. So, needless to say Jim's confidence in the guys knowledge about a runner's needs plummeted after he had paid for the shoes!
