What are the best shoes for running?
You may have seen over the past year or so, almost every winner of every major marathon or fun run event has been wearing those fast green Nikes… or maybe if you’re not a running nerd like myself, you would have no clue what I’m talking about but want to get the ‘fast green Nikes’ anyway. So what are the best running shoes? This will vary from person to person.
Firstly, everyone’s feet are different, when you land you may strike the ground in a neutral position or you may pronate (roll in), in which case you should buy shoes which will better suit your foot strike. If you don’t know if you’ve got a neutral or pronating foot strike, you could go to a sport store or a running specialist store. But my pick of the bunch when it comes to selecting your next pair of running shoes is The Running Company. With a number of stores based in major Australian cities, these guys know their stuff and take the time to treadmill test you and fit you for the best pair of shoes. Kinda like the cinderellas of the running industry (or would that be the prince charmings?).“Do you need more than one pair of shoes? How about those fast Nike’s you were talking about? Where can I get them?”
Every runner should have a pair of comfortable runners they could wear for all types of training, once again, the running shops will help you out. If you’re adding some faster session into your training regimen or running at the local athletics track, investing in some lighter weight ‘racing’ shoes would be of benefit (if not, physically, you’ll at least think you’re going faster wearing your ‘racing’ shoes).
People can tend to get a bit carried away trying to make our most basic sport of running, a bit too complicated by purchasing a full range of shoes for different situations.If I was starting out, I’d just stick to the reliable pair of trainers (or two) and go from there.
But if you’re a keen runner, cashing a PB and dropping $320 AUD on a pair of shoes doesn’t scare you off, then those green Nikes may be a good idea. I’ve tried them, they’re fast.
