Need some help from you runners
So I use to run everyday ( back in 2006) I had to take a few off due to back pain/surgery, now I'm ready to get back in to it again. I went out this morning and ran for a little while and found my old friends (running shoes) not to be so friendly anymore. so I'm in the market for some comfy shoes that aren't going to cost me an arm and a leg. what do you recommended?!? I go in to the store and there's and just so many pairs and brands.
Thanks!
Re: Need some help from you runners
Running shoes aren't one size fits all, so the best thing to do is to go into a local running store if you can (not a big chain) and get fitted for them. Ideally they'll do a gait analysis to see how your feet hit when you run and thus choose the best shoes for you.
They may cost a little more because you'll probably feel obligated to buy what they recommend, but next time you need a new pair you could just buy the same model online - that's what I do and I've been able to get a pair of my shoes (Saucony Kinarna 2) for under $60 when I catch them on sale.
The other thing you could do is just look for the same model you wore previously online (runnignwarehouse.com is the best I've found for cheap prices). Shoes get worn out once they hit around the 400 mile mark (depending on the person) and that may be why they were uncomfortable.
But ideally you'd probably want to get re-evaluated since you haven't run for a while.

Everything Becca said. Plus, be careful buying "clearance" shoes - the rubber can break down over time and you won't be doing your feetlegs/back any favours.
