On twitter the other day I asked this…
and I got some good responses…
all of which I’ve never tried. I’ve used Nike and Adidas.
Its about that time again that I start shopping for some new running shoes. The kicks are starting to get worn. Question is, do i buy before my half-marathon in October? Or wait till after? Hmm….
What type of shoes do you run in and why?
















I love my New Balance shoes. I used to wear Nikes and they always made my feet hurt. There are so many options with New Balance shoes. A real plus for someone with flat feet and bad knees like me. October is a long way off, if you need new running shoes you shouldn’t wait.
I love my Saucony Hurricanes but I think I might try on some Brooks and Mizunos next time I get shoes. I bought new shoes in February and had my half marathon in March, it worked out fine for me. I’d just say give yourself plenty of time to break them in before your half.
I love my Nike+ Free Runs. They’re as close to “barefoot running” you can get, and they are supposedly the most flexible shoe on the market right now. I love how comfy they are, they offer a good bit of cushion, and of course they come in pink! Plus, they’re Nike pluses, so I can monitor my runs using the nike plus sportband tech.
hey, nice blog…really like it and added to bookmarks. keep up with good work
