What do miles and rain do to joggling balls?

by Average Joggler on 02/13/2010

I just stumbled on these pictures of some of my old joggling balls.jogglingball1

This first set was one that I had used for a couple years. It was a set of ‘More Balls Than Most’ and while they weren’t too bad for joggling, they were a bit slippery. I didn’t like the rainbow colors either.

This next set of jugglebugs was one that I also used for a couple of years. Sadly, they did not last as long as the could have. I dropped the green one while crossing the street and a car ran over it before I could retrieve it.

1. They’re durable
2. They are fun to juggle
3. They don’t pick up odors

You remember the smell of my joggling balls! Those things definitely stink because they are porous and have soaked up sweat and who knows what :) If you ever want to test one in the lab and see what’s on it, let me know.

I dropped a ball today in the street today and retrieved it in plenty of time but thought about the possibility of losing one that way. Glad it hasn’t happened to me yet, but maybe I’d better start carrying an extra one just in case.

Of course, carrying an extra one isn’t very sporting.
