Two weeks ago, I ran a marathon in Ohio called The First Day of Winter 50K, Marathon, and Half Marathon. I had a great time and would recommend it to anyone interested in a low key, no time limit race with great food and great swag. My main complaint about the race had nothing to do with race itself, it had to do with my shoelaces. I really like a brand called Scott eRides that come with really long shoelaces. I've done a lot of runs and know to doubletie my laces,but even doing that, my right shoelace kept coming untied. It drove me crazy. I ended up wrapping my shoelace around my lower leg and that seemed to work, but it was a little uncomfortable and very annoying. When I got home, I decided to look for an alternative.
One of the Facebook pages I follow had an ad for shoelace that does not tie, but has a clasp that secures the lace. Since I have two pairs of the eRides, I bought three pairs of the laces. I tried them out today and they worked well. It would be a great relief to not have to worry about shoelaces during my runs.
