Me


I run on an average of 7-8 miles a day and the shoes I have now are New Balance and have extra support, but are starting to get really heavy and weigh me down when I run.. I've had bad knee ankle and hip injuries and so support is also a major factor when I buy my running shoes. Are there any shoes out there that you would suggest has both support and are lightweight?


Answer
Fila skele toes or vibram five fingers skele toes are cheepest good luck

do i need to have running shoes or do regular tennis shoes work?

Q. i want to start jogging for cardio after my workout, but i don't have running shoes. i do have regular tennis shoes, but im wondering do i have to have specific shoes, shoes designed especially for running, or can i use regular tennis shoes.

i know that heavier shoes are supposed to be worse because they slow you down, but i don't want to flat out sprint, so speed isn't a concern for me. basically, will it be bad on my feet to use regular shoes?


Answer
As a distance runner, my advice to you is to use a running shoe.

Running shoes are designed specifically for running, which is very different from tennis. Tennis involves a lot of side to side, back to forth movement, while running involves only one movement - forward. So, the mechanics is different, and the design of the shoes have to be different to accommodate for efficiency as well as protection.

The problem of running with wrong types of shoes is that, if you do it for a long time, you are at risk of injury. Believe me, I have had my share of injuries, including severe foot pain from badly fitted shoes. In fact, at present, I am changing my running shoes after realizing that I had just done about 500 miles on this old pair, even though they look great. I realized that after my foot started hurting a bit after running this week.

Don't save money and buy the wrong types of shoes. If you do a lot of cross training, a cross training shoe may be OK. Otherwise, if you want to run, get a running shoe. Tennis shoes will not do.
