Home is our body. Walking home, running “home”. We are all in motion and are feet are simultenaously our roots. A work by Verónica Perales

Running Shoes (2021) addresses the issue of women's safety in public spaces, prompted by the murder of Sarah Everard on March 3, 2021. The work features spoken testimonies from Glasgow students expressing their feelings of insecurity while walking in the city.

Running Shoes (2021) is a response to the current discourse around the safety of women. This issue was brought to the forefront on the 3rd of March 2021 when Sarah Everard was murdered and raped on her walk home. The murder of this young woman made people finally listen mostly because of the fact that she did everything in her power to remain safe. She was wearing gym clothes and running shoes.

The piece presents the spoken testimonies of a group of students from Glasgow that detail how unsafe they feel simply walking down the street.

oversupinate

People who jog, run, and sprint have their share of problems that slow-moving people can barely comprehend. One is oversupination. As the OED defines it, to oversupinate is “To run or walk so that the weight falls upon the outer sides of the feet to a greater extent than is necessary, desirable, etc.” A 1990 Runner’s World article gets to the crux of the problem: “It’s hard to ascertain exactly what percentage of the running population oversupinates, but it’s a fraction of the people who think they do.” Credits to Mark Peters.
