Becomecom gives a great analysis of 10 different long distance running shoes. Jody T Fransch presents an excellent article on how better nutrition and exercise can be a first step in the realization of life changes many people are looking for. Madeleine Begun Kane share another of her irreverent limericks guaranteed to make you smile.

I hope you enjoy the submissions. Keep those sports related articles coming. It is my hope that you consider this a fun and easy way to get the word out about the sport (or sports) you love to play and/or watch.
