Where can I find inexpensive running shoes?

best running shoes brooks image

My friend is interested in running track in the NCAA for his Division 3 college, but he can't afford to spend $80-100 on running shoes. He looked into the Nike, Brooks, and New Balance wear testing programs, but they don't allow NCAA athletes to participate. I was wondering whether there's any chance someone knows of other relatively inexpensive options. Thanks.

Answer
Try places like Kohls and JC Penny (these would be best--as a college athlete i've gotten plenty of shoes from here that have lasted me many of miles), maybe marshalls or like a tjmax (they usually have slim pickings though) and you can get good quality shoes for less. Check the clearance racks at places like sports authority and dicks.

Also, if you can shop online you should try eastbay.com they usually have really good deals.

What are good running shoes for beginners?

Are there good running shoes at a reasonable price? Also what type of socks do I use? Any help is appreciated!

Answer
I agree on Asics or Brooks. I used to wear adidas and Nike, but I've been wearing Asics for the last 3-4 years and I just bought by first pair of Brooks this year...what a difference. Much more comfortable! The best thing to do is go to a running shoe store and have them analyze your foot...they will fit you in a shoe designed for your foot type.
