Re: running quetion
Wear them around? Give them a military burial?

Re: running quetion
Once they're retired, they enter the "Leks Hall of Shame", aka normal everyday usage. I wear them around town, to school, walking my dogs, to work, etc. They're not technically dead, just can't run in the anymore, right?
Or you could recycle them, too.

Re: running quetion
I wear mine just for normal usages, like walking etc. If it's too small but in good-shape we give them away. Bad-shape: goes to the trash!
