What are the Different Types of Running Shoes?
Choosing a new pair of running shoes can be a daunting task with so many options on the market. If you visit a running shoe store or pick up a magazine about running and jogging, you will find words such as pronation, supination, and neutral to describe your running style. You will find that running shoes come in a variety of types and styles that include those for motion control, support, cushioning, and racing. You will discover that the type of running shoes you need may depend on whether you do road or trail running, whether you are fast, slow or steady, and whether or not you race. Gone are the days when you would simply go into a store and find a pair of sneakers that fit. Today, choosing running shoes has become a science.
