Today was very educational and fun. We got an opportunity to explore the nike campus which is the head quarters in Portland, Oregon. We found out that Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight were the inventors of nike.It was really amazing how Bill Bowerman got the idea of making the sole of a nike running shoe based on how the waffle maker is formed. If you ever get a chance to look at the two you can see the similarity. Also the campus has 17 buildings and can fit to at least about 5,000 people. WOW! Lastly the nike store was great. They had really cheap prices especially for new shoes that just came out they were very cheap. But overall it was a great experience and I really had a nice time.--Diamond

Hello Diamond!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your narrative. Outstanding post. The historical background on the Nike shoe sole is a great 'fun fact'.
Keep it up. Enjoy!
