I was home early from work today due to a dental appointment and took advantage of the fact to go for my run when I got home at 4:00. For some reason I happened to look at the bottom of my shoes when I grabbed them and noticed a screw sticking in the right shoe.

The screw was nearly 1/2 inch long. I must have picked it up at some point during Sunday’s long run. I did notice a clicking sound during that run but did not think anything of it at the time because I was busy pushing my daughter in her Chariot. Fortunately the screw wasn’t any longer as the soles of my race flats are not very thick.
