New running shoes!

I finally went to go buy shoes - thank goodness.  C25K is going okay, although I still feel like a beginner and do each week twice before moving on. 

I went to Marathon Sports off of 50th and Penn and they were absolutley fantastic.  I told them I was a beginner and had no idea what to do and they spent about 30 min looking at my bare feet standing, walking, etc.  Put in my a few different types of shoes and they I ran outside in each to figure out which one I like the best.  

If anyone is thinking about new running, etc shoes, I vote for them.  They also have a two week return policy if you get fitted with them and end up not liking them.  Plus, since I'm a new customer I got 20% off my first pair of shoes Big Smile

Re: New running shoes!

  • NICE!!  It made a world of difference when I got new shoes.  Turns out my old shoes were doing nothing for me.

    What did you end up with?

  • LOVE Marathon Sports. They were so great when I was training for the 3 Day walk in 2009. We continue to buy our shoes from them still. In fact, it's about time for a new pair for me...

  • Yeah, I was (obviously) really happy with them.  And my run today was almost effortless (I went up a week on C25K).

    Kiz, I ended up with asics gt-2160.  I already have big feet at an 11, and he put me in an 11.5! *gasp*  But they are super comfy, so it's all worth it.
