Physiotherapy - discount for club members

What do you do with cross country and track spikes that you've grown out of?

Are they lying at the bottom of the wardrobe? Why not give someone else the benefit? At cross country and track meetings there are often some runners who forget their spikes or maybe it is their first outing and they don't have spikes yet. I have built up a small stock to lend out so if you have some old ones tucked away please pass them on to me - Ron Scott. Thanks.
