I've been looking for some new running shoes. I really like trail running but more often than not I run on roads mainly b/c of the convienence factor. I would really like a pair of running shoes that are good on or off road. Does anybody recomend a shoe that could do this for me? Thanks a bunch!!

Answer
I personally enjoy New Balance especially the 900's series, they to me are the best. They provide a lot of cushion and comfort and most important are good for a lot of milage, they have different sizes for different shapes of feet like width and length. I have been running in them for a long time and am very pleased!

What's the difference between trail-running shoes and running shoes?

I'm on a tight budget right now and the cheapest quality running shoes I came across were trail-running shoes. I usually run on cement, so would this be a bad investment?

Answer
They can be heavier, more stable, have more aggressive tread, and usually have less cushioning. Some transition to roads better than others. Some incorporate quality waterproofing.

Cement is the hardest surface on which you can run -- you'll often want more cushioning than the average trail shoe provides.

When it comes to running shoes, it's more important to find the right shoe(s) for you than just the cheapest shoe in the short-term. If you have to buy other shoes, get injured, etc., what's the cheapest shoe right now will not still be the cheapest shoe in a month or two.

I'd try to find the right shoe options for you while ignoring price a bit more, and then spend time shopping around, finding sales or coupons, older models, etc., if you need to.
