From the Journals: DAY 73

Coach

Port Clinton, PA: 0mi

The Professor's feet are like they were coming into Damascus, VA. With shoes completely broken down and the upcoming terrain, we wisely decided we needed to take a Zero Day to fix this problem. Thankfully, Manager Mike is supporting us on this slack packing. If he wasn't here, we would have been in a big pinch and would have lost much more than a Zero Day. With some assistance from Lindsay, we were able to track down a store to get him some replacements. The closest retailer for the Professor's shoes was REI, 35 miles away. After 1200 miles and 3 different pairs of shoes and two brands later, I finally convinced the Professor to try on some MERRELLs. I am very interested to see if this is the solution to his feet issues. It also really helps to pull our uniforms together, since now we even have these same shoes.
