Shoe Smackers

I've been trying to keep myself in shape by running...The shoes I have now have laces that don't always stay tied. So to combat this little problem I asked a few people I know who have run marathons to give me some advice on how to keep them tied.

One of the guys I asked said he carries a tube of chapstick with him. He uses it to not only moisturize his lips, but to keep his laces tied.

Now I know your saying umm this is not only weird but a little gross, so let me explain how he does this.
Before tying your shoe, dab the chapstick or lip balm onto the spot where the knot goes and the bow will stay put. I was skeptical so I tried it, and sure enough it worked! What a really great trick! Try this out the next time you decide to throw your kicks and take a run through the park.
