I am seriously considering adding running back into my weekly routine now that the girls are getting older. In my motivational high, I went to my closet over the weekend to seek out my shoe story for the task. I was surprised at how badly my current tennis shoes looked. I have not bought any is so long that a few the pair do not even fit anymore !
Darned feet growing while pregnant!
Because I have children with limited capability to be in public for extreme amounts of time – especially if we are not doing anything for them, I thought I would look around online and compare shoes that way.
But, I know nothing about shoes these days so I need your advise!
I like Asics Sneakers and always have, but am not sure which is a good running shoe anymore! Or what I should be looking for in a “beginning” running shoe.
Now, someone told me about Nike Lunar Glide’s, but I have never had Nike’s and am not up to date on the latest technology and advantages to them! Anyone have any that they want to tell me about?
But as I search, I see even more shoes that I think are -well, to be honest – are just cute! LOL Like the collection of Nike Shox Turbo 10!
I don’t know… do I just go with my old standby?
What do you guys think? Any runners out there?
Thanks!

I have always loved the way Asics fit me. You might try a specialized running shoe store if you happen to have one in your area. They make you walk on a treadmill and see if you have pronation. Some shoes help stabilize your foot. Things do change after having kids and the way you put weight on your feet when running can change. See if you have a running store near you. Good luck!
Thank you Kim!! I will certainly check into it!
I am so inlove with my Sketchers Shape Ups! I wear these things everywhere. They do take a little bit to get use too but are AWESOME once you do!
HI ERIN!!! Can I run in them though?
The best thing you can do for your running self is to go to a running store and be fitted. Then you can do what I did when it was time to replace them, I found the latest version of what I already had and ordered them online from Zappos.com. Saved me sales tax and the 40 mile round trip to the store. Invest in a good sports bra too!
Awesome -thank you!!! yes, I’ll be needed a new bra as well :)
