Gear Diary GD Quickie: Teva Sandals Saves a Penguin! photo

(image courtesy Runners World)

I fully recognize that this story is basically a giant ad for Teva. However, it’s too adorable not to share. In a nutshell, Lucky the Penguin had a foot deformity that would have led to sores and infections, so Teva made a special penguin-shoe just for him. But really, the video is what this story is all about…you can’t watch the baby penguin waddle/limp wearing his stylish Tevas without letting out an involuntary “awwwwwww”.

Check out the video for the full story, and then let us know in the comments if you want a pet penguin now as badly as I do! (For the record, I was outvoted by both Sarah and our dog. Damn.)
