Whats the best runner ?

[pickle]

There are so many running shoes out there, what kind does Cathe use, and what are your favorites? pickle

Do you mean running shoes, or training shoes? Cathe and crew usually wear Rykas and lots of people here use them too. But it all depends on your foot and what feels comfortable to you.

I loved my Rykas but they didn't have any training shoes when I went to get new shoes, so I got New Balance and I must say, they're very comfy and springy

I love Asics gel GT-2110's, but that's just *my* preference. I went to my local running store & had them fit my feet properly. That's the best advice because what fits my big, over pronating feet might not be for someone else!! ;-) My other advice- get them a size bigger than your normal shoes (I actually have to get them 2 sizes bigger!) if you're going to be running longer distances (I'm training for a half & full marathon) & get good running socks too!

HTH!

Ditto to what Jess said. I recommend a running specialty store if you have one near you. The folks who work at these places are runners and are knowledgable about the shoes, and they'll spend the time helping you find a shoe that works for you.

You do need to go to a specialty running store to have your foot properly fitted for the right running shoe. It's not a "plush luxery, comfort" thing, it's a "how to avoid injury" thing. Pick up a decent pair of sock while you are there, that matters a lot, too!

To answer your question, my foot prefers Mizuno's.

I can't remember the model name, but Cathe wears Asics for running and Ryka Enlight2 for studio work (which are discontinued nowx( )

I second the fitting idea, though!
