Choose to buy running shoes for running now so it will benefit your feet, joints and your running before you start running!

It can be daunting trying to figure out the right running shoe. I've got 3 categories for you to pick from. There are lots of questions about what type of running shoe is the best for you feet, so go ahead figure out what shoe is best for you.

When you are thinking about purchasing a running shoe, you really have to investigate what type of shoe you really need according  to your foot type and the way you run.

Your feet are an important part of your running program because they are the first to absorb your body's  impact.

Running in the wrong running shoe for too long will change your form and could cost you an injury. The shock that comes from your feet hitting the pavement can run up to parts of your body that weren't built to absorb that kind of impact. Start out in a  normal running shoe and see the difference after buying a more specialized shoe for better absorption!

Tires on a car:
If you were to drive a simple care down a really bumpy road for a month, what would happen to your car? It depends on the tires. If you didn't have specialized tires you'd probably have to replace the shocks, have some tire issues and last but not least your car, from all that impact, would need adjustments to the mechanics within.
Change it up a bit by putting super absorbent tires and better shocks and you got yourself a car that loves the bumpy road.

You are the same except this is your body we are talking about, so buying good runners is a must when you are learning to run!
