Nike: Men's Zoom + Victory Running Shoe
First to recommend
Description
Nike's new Flywire support system doesn't get much face time on this shoe, but the athletes who will be wearing it during the track & field events at this summer's Olympic games know it is there, supporting each and every stride. Along with the Zoom cushioning, this as close as you can get to having a computer judge the need of your every step. Fortunately, Nike makes this shoe available to even us mere mortals to enjoy.

Target: Junior Spirit Archery Set
First to recommend
Description
My son recently told me that he wants to be an archer when he grows up. Okay, so, maybe there aren't that many paying jobs out there for a well-trained archer, but he could be on that Olympic roster one day. And, lest I squelch any sincere desire he has to pursue excellence, I agreed to buy him an archery set this summer. If you have a budding archer in your own family, this junior set is a fun and safe place to start practicing.
