Best running shoes?

I%26#039;m starting to run with friends every week at Metro Parks. And I don%26#039;t have any real running shoes. The middle area of my foot also starts to cramp after running or walking after a certain amount of time. What kind of running shoes do you use, or recommend? What do you think is the best brand?

Best running shoes?
Nike and Adias are good running shoes
Reply:Hard to say what the best running shoes are. You should go to a shoe center and have them test your foot. They can find what %26#039;kind of foot%26#039; you have. Running shoes can be specific to your foot, and if you run in the wrong ones you can get injured. Once you have your type (Neutral, Comfort, or Stability) you can pick a shoe you like based on style or price. Just because a shoe cost a lot more doesn%26#039;t make it a better shoe if it doesn%26#039;t fit your foot. Personally I like brooks and adidas brand shoes.
Reply:any kind of durable running shoes are good. i recommend nike, addidas, asics are good also.


brands aren%26#039;t as imporant because that%26#039;s just the name, it%26#039;s really behind how stable the shoe is and how long it will last.


the middle area of your foot is your arch. make sure you get some high arch shoes and talk to the sales ppl about it and they will find a shoe that will support your arch.


to make it so that your arch isn%26#039;t so sore try icing is or massaging it or rolling a can or something to stretch out the muscles.
Reply:Well I would try to find a running shoe store in your area. They will fit you with a good shoe and make sure that it fits you and everything.





There really is not a better brand of shoe. It just depends on what you like and what feels comfortable. I myself like Brooks. A few of my friends hate Brooks. It%26#039;s opinion. But definably go to a running store. It%26#039;s your best bet.





Good luck
Reply:finding a good shoe all depends on personal comfort and what shoe best fits your foot, go to a running/shoe store and ask what they suggest, you just want to make sure it right for your feet, i%26#039;ve ended up with shoes that werent right for me which caused very painful shin splints and stress fracture, now i have been running on brooks and i havent had any shin problems
Reply:Now I hate to be horribly cocky here but, if you want a QUALITY shoe for whatever way you run you need Newtons. They are not very heard of but my cousin runs distance for Oregon and he suggests Newtons above all else. GREAT SHOE!
Reply:Personally, I prefer asics but other brands are also good.
