Movin’ Shoes Owner Karl Harter is Inducted into the Running Speciality Hall of Fame

Movin' Shoes 11 December, 2012

On Tuesday December 11th, 2012 – Movin’ Shoes owner Karl Harter was inducted into the Running Speciality Hall of Fame.  Click HERE to watch the video on YouTube.  A very sincere thank you to all of our amazing customers, friends, and staff over the past 40 years who have made this possible.  This simply would not have happened without you.   In Karl’s words, “My emphasis has always been showing respect to the regularly, ordinary, guy and gal, who goes out there and slugs through a run.  Whether you’re an elite marathoner, a guy that wants to lose 10 pounds, or a woman who wants to start an exercise program.  If running is important to you, then you are important to us.  It’s not your time, it’s not your speed, it’s not the accomplishments that matter.  All that matters is that you are trying to move, and that’s what makes you a runner.  And because I’m a rock’n’roll kid who loves Bob Dylan from Maggie’s Farm – Bob Dylan says, I try my best to be like I am, but everybody wants me to be just like them, don’t be like them, try the best to be just whoever you are.”

It was about two years ago that we were out burnin It was about two years ago that we were out burning some brush alongside @iceagetrailorg to help them build trails. This photo of @tenkrunner watching the brush burn seemed like a fitting way to say goodbye to 2020 and hello to whatever comes next. Whatever it is, running will likely be involved.

A bit about Liz, MSRC Secretary extraordinaire, co A bit about Liz, MSRC Secretary extraordinaire, coming atcha with some wise wisdom when it comes to exploring new trails:

• Name: Elizabeth (Liz) Veler

• Hometown: Boston, NY by way of Ishpeming, MI

• Years Running: 10!

• Favorite route: Shorewood Hills or Capital City Trail

• Why do you run? To stay in shape for my marathon addiction, and for the relationships that I've gained through running with others

• Why did you join the club? I started running with the track group off & on shortly after I moved to Madison.  I was impressed with how welcomed and comfortable I felt even around athletes literally running twice as fast as me. When MSRC was reimagined a few years ago I was eager to help establish the group. 

• Favorite/weirdest running memory? I've had numerous "adventure runs" on trails that have ended up 2 or 3 times as long as they were supposed to be. After all, why not take the fork in the path that you don't know where it'll lead you! (I've always made it home eventually)

• Favorite recovery snack? Lay's Classic potato chips, Pizza.

Get to know your favorite egg-eating-running-banan Get to know your favorite egg-eating-running-banana from Subzero!

• Name: Liz Mehls

• Hometown: Tomah, WI

• Years Running: 16

• Favorite route: There are so many! I like the Lower Yahara Trail with the bridge into McDaniel Park in McFarland; the Glacial Drumlin trail in Cottage Grove; and anything around campus for the nostalgia factor.

• Why do you run?: The #1 reason is that I am a better person, partner, and teacher when I run. My #2 reason is the friendships. It’s amazing how well you can get to know someone on a long run! I met one of my best friends in a speedwork group, and we’ve run many races together since (usually in banana suits!).

• Why did you join the club?: I am obsessed with the Subzero Race Series, and the club was promoted at the races. I signed up to keep the good vibes going! Plus, pancake runs and the great routes that Morgan creates.

• Favorite/weirdest running memory?: Honestly, I’ve been streaking through this pandemic, and the neighborhood kids have become my cheering section. They are elementary aged, and one kid runs out the door (mid-breakfast) to yell, “Go, Liz!” and the others will stop their outdoor play to clap for me when I run by. It’s the freaking best. 

• Favorite recovery snack?: Eggs.
