I recently got back into running…the reason is primarily to help supplement my cardio for grappling. I actually don’t enjoy running too much, but I feel that forcing myself to do certain things I dislike can be helpful in building some resiliency and mental toughness. So…I went down the rabbit hole on running shoes to try and figure out which ones were the “best.” After doing some extensive research and getting some recommendations, I landed on a couple of different pairs and brands, specifically based on certain criteria I believe to be important in a running shoe.

Now these are just my opinions on running shoes and running. There are tons of solid running shoes out there. Picking something that feels good to you is the important part.

So here are some ideas I focused on:

Many shoes are “shoe-shaped” but aren’t necessarily “foot-shaped.”

Some shoes come to a point in the front which can compress the foot and toes, and “foot shaped” shoes have a wider toe box and have the toe box in the shape of your foot.

I wanted a shoe that would allow my toes to spread out and had a decently wide toe box to allow my foot intrinsics to work properly while running. This was important for me to improve my running mechanics as well as promote general good running mechanics.

Also if you choose to do running for cardio or exercise, check out some ideas on what you should focus on.

Also, I was not paid or endorsed by any of these shoe companies, these are my honest opinions.
