best running shoes you image
Rob
I bought a pair of saucony running shoes today and when I tried them out on pavement it felt like every time i lifted my feet it took some effort to un-stick them from the ground. I found this kind of annoying so I took them off and debating returning them. Is this what all good running shoes should feel like?
Answer
How odd, Saucony are generally known to be some of the best shoes for running, although I never wore any, having instead had experience with Asics and Nike.
If a running shoe is good you should, generally speaking, not notice it, that is it shouldn't be too heavy and it should ergonomically aid your running in a way that does not harm your joints, tendons and ligaments, and it sounds like this is not what this shoe is doing for you.
If you feel the shoe is defective absolutely do take it back.
But if you're not sure you may want to try to search for other user's experiences with that shoe, maybe the sole needs to be worn a little, but it does sound weird.
It might also help to know what Saucony model you have purchased.

What brand or kind of running shoes provide a lot of cushioning?

I've been using an old pair of running shoes for a couple years and they really need to be replaced. I'm a big dude for a runner, and also have flat feet so I want something with a ton of cushioning to absorb impact.
With that being my only concern in buying a pair of running shoes, any recommendations?
Answer
Running shoes need to be replaced every 300-500 miles. Not every couple years. A very bad decision to keep the same shoes for years. I'm shocked you haven't developed an injury as a result.
If you have been wearing several year old shoes you have been running without cushion essentially for those couple years. Why do you think you need it now? Or even shoes with support for flat feet? So I would be cautious to think you need all these things when you currently don't have a problem.
I'm a big Asics fan so I know most about Asics shoes.
I wear the 2170's and the Kayanos (because I run over 20 miles a week I have more than one pair of shoes and I alternate. I think 20 miles per week or greater is a good rule for when to start alternating).
They Kayano 19s are great. They have a lot of cushioning in them. Even more than my previous 18's. So I recommend those. They are a stability shoe and intended for individuals who over pronate.
If you are a larger guy the Asics Evolutions are a good choice. They are a very high level of cushion and stability intended for clydesdale runners.
However I do recommend that you go to a running store (not just some sporting goods store) and actually get fitted for a pair of shoes. They will put you on a treadmill and fit you for the right kind of shoe.
