Family Traits

I keep wearing out my sneakers, not on the soles but on the ankles. What's the deal with this? What adds to this mystery is my cousin has the same issue!

As follow-up to my bizarre sneaker issue reported last month. It turns out my cousin Jill has the same issue (she submitted a photo as proof).

Gotta love all the wonderful genetic traits pass down through my family tree… heart disease, diabetes, obesity, freckles and now big ankle bones? Seriously? I’m starting to think our gene pool is getting a little weak!

Thanks Jill for sharing your embarrassing secret about protruding ankle bones… I feel much better knowing that I’m not a complete freak… that it’s a family thang’! I guess it could be worse… we could have fat ankles!

I guess both Jill and I need to pay a visit to the Running Room and get properly fitted for our sneakers!
