Running Shoes and Shopping

Shopppinnnggggg!!! A word that would stir any ladies heart. Combine the word with Running Shoes and most runners will be going Oooooo as well.That is of course, if there is no budget limitation lol.

I've just stumbled onto a post by Jay Dicharry, author of Anatomy for Runners: Unlocking Your Athletic Potential for Health, Speed, and Injury Prevention. He's also the Director of SPEED Performance Clinic and the Motion Analysis Lab Coordinator at the University of Virginia. But I digress. The post can be found here and mainly discusses on Tips for Running Shoes Selection.

Having bought my own shoes just recently, I can say that there's some truth in this. A shoe that does not feel comfortable may not feel the same way when you're running. Take the Skechers GoRun for example. It feels weird when standing on it. The only reason it got sold on me was because it's super light and when I was jumping on it, it felt different, with more firmness than I thought it would feel.

So when you buy your running shoes next time, do remember what's been discussed by Jay Dicharry in his post.
