Oddbean new post about login | logout Nostr, I need some advice. I need a pair of running shoes. Before this year, I had never ran before in my life. My current shoes aren't cutting it. What should I look into getting?
$170? That's a bit too much for this pleb. I've never bought a pair of shoes over $100.
I have a pair of brooks that I've been using but they're 4 years old and really worn. I was thinking of getting them again.
Wow. It's going to take me a long time to get up to those numbers 🥹 I currently walk and run for about a combined 3.5 miles a day. I'd guess about out of that 3.5 roughly 1-1.5 is running. Honestly any shoes are probably better than my current ones. Thanks for the tips.
Hmm. I'll have to check tomorrow. I believe I run more on my toes.
Thanks. I literally know nothing about shoes. I buy them. They go on my feet. They fit or they don't. That's where my knowledge ends 🤣
i will probably lift a little bit, but the key here is cardio.
i don't think im that hardcore. i got a couple brands to check out. i think ill be good. 😉
thank you. based on my previous experience and what many have been recommending, ill probably go with brooks.
This has been on my mind too. I ride an indoor exercise bike on rainy days or in the winter. We have tons of trails around here. I want to get a mountain or trail bike, but that's another rabbit hole and hundreds and hundreds of dollars I don't want to spend.
good idea. i just run around my neighborhood on the asphalt.
