What is a good running course shoe?

Go to a running shoe store.  Not a mall atheletic store.  They will custom fit your foot to a shoe that will be most beneficial to you.  They will take into consideration, stride, footfall, pronation, weight, and other things in order to get you a shoe that will be comfortable when running.\nA place in the mall will make sure it's the right size (and they're often wrong on that too).

Go out to your local running store and try some shoes out.  Generally, the cheaper a running shoe is, the "less shoe" you're going to get.\n\nFor Example, Racing flats are generally around $60, regular models are around $75-90, and motion-control and cushioneded shoes are $90-120.\n\nAs you go up that ladder, you are getting more cushion, motion-control and general 'technology.'\n\nTrying to buy cheap shoes to run in will only cause you to buy improper ones for your needs and you'll end up hurting yourself, or running in uncomfortable shoes.\n\nThe better way to go about buying running shoes is to go to a running store, and talk with the clerk (they're generally very very knowledgeable) about what you need out of your shoe, and they will pick the correct one for you.  It's worth the investment to shell out an extra $20 to keep your legs healthy.\n\nI hope this helps, good luck finding the right shoes.

A cross trainer.  Basketball sneakers are terrible for running.\n\nTry them on, get the brand that fits best.

The brand isn't as important as the type. The 3 basic types are:\n\nMotion Control: usually for Heavier runners who tend to pronate severely (pronation is the rolling inward of the foot s you strike the ground)\n\nStability: for the average runner\n\nCushioned: for  the lighter, faster runner or for the runner who does not pronate enough.\n\nAlso, you need the right shoe for what you are doing; don't run in tennis shoes or play basketball in walking shoes. (I know  this is obvious, but you'd be surprised what people do.) Don't use cross trainers unless you are primarily lifting or using elliptical trainers & stationary bikes.\n\nFinally, check  out Runner's World or The Running Times. They each do shoe surveys that are quite helpful.\n\nOh, one more thing - I buy from Road Runner Sports on line; they rate and categorize shoes for you and carry all major brands. Me, I need a motion control shoe, so I use the Brooks Beast. I love the Brooks line.

More and more superstores/grocery stores [Wal*Mart...depending where you live - Meijers] are starting to sell namebrand clothing and shoe brands. You could try that. Or there's always eBay. I know that they have online stores connected to eBay that sell running shoes wholesale - brand new for really cheap. Those are a few options. :) Good luck!

I bought a pair of Nike Interines which is just a training shoe.  I suggest against this.  Defiantly go with a pair of Asics or Mizunos.  I've used them in the past and they make a good shoe.  The only problem is that I haven't found a good pair of Asics in my size outside the Internet so here's hoping you don't have as large feet.

reduce your speed and distance, increase them gradually\nincrease 1km every 2 weeks\ndont run on hard surfaces like concrete/asphalt...you should prefer running tracks/mud/grass\nif your shoes are old, the padding effect will be very low...get new ones\nice your shins after running\ndont strain yourself

Excellent!  There's absolutely no reason you can't do this.\n\nGet to a real running store, and have them fit you.  Some of the more sophisticated shops have a tool that will image your feet and strike patterns.  At the very least, they will watch you run.\n\nThe big key sometime hinges on stability control, pronation and supination.  Without knowing exactly what you do, it's pretty useless to recommend a specific shoe.\n\nHowever, I have excellent luck with New Balance shoes.  They seem to offer widths, and a wide range of products with and without stability control.  The Brooks Beast is a good shoe, if it fits you.\n\nIf you are running now, bring your old shoes with you.  This can be very helpful.  Do NOT go to a big retail chain.  It's rare to find a tech who knows anything about running shoes.\n\nThe salesperson will probably recommend going up one-half to a full size.  At high mileage your feet swell significantly.  It's more of a concern for a marathon, so a half size should do it.\n\nGood luck!

New Balance are the ones I reccomend from running daily in the army, but it depends on the type of support you need.  Make sure you get the correct one for your arch.

I have a pair of Adidas Supernova Classic, 2 months old,86.99\n\nA pair of Mizuno Inspire, 89.99 3 weeks old\n\nA pair of Adidas Supernova Trail $40 bucks  1.5 years old (eBay bargain)\n\nA pair of Adidas Supernova Classic 6 months old on the way out, to become my weight training shoes and then lawn mowers.\n\nI love my Adidas Supernova Classics, they are a stability shoe, and they wear like iron. Jury is out on the Mizunos, but they were great out of the box, no breaking in necessary.

I have been a long distance runner for over twelve years. I started out in high school where I only wore Nike because I liked their styles the best. However, in the past six years I have tried a variety of brands (everything from Reebok to Asics to Saucony) to see if there was anything better out there. I have found New Balance to be the most comfortable and durable shoes that I have tried. They are the only running shoes that I wear. However, my girlfriend has flat feet and swears by Adidas.

Go to a specialty running store and let them recommend a shoe that is right for you.

Nike Shox are not the best support shoe if you plan on using them for running or any exercise involving running. There are better shoes out there that are better for you style of feet. They are best for a walking around shoe at most.
