The Daily 5 is back! Here it goes…. How did I miss this?? Adidas teamed up with Star Wars and is set to release a line of sneakers modeled after all things Star Wars.

In my opinion I think that this may be because buying a pair of running shoes is much cheaper than a monthly gym membership and running provides a cheap and easy form of keeping in shape. I think running also provides an amount of time for an individual to think and unwind which is also ve…
