Run for health & fitness
As a runner, I have worn a lot of shoes in my day. I have tried nearly every brand of running shoes in multiple styles, but my Brooks running shoes are the ones I have found I can rely on.
Any runner knows that shoes are paramount to a good experience. With the wrong shoes, you don’t just have an uncomfortable run; you can have painful blisters, lose toenails, or worst of all, develop knee and ankle injuries. Yes, this can all happen from simply having the wrong shoes.
I first tried the Brooks brand about two years ago when I was training for my first marathon. I had been wearing a different brand and found that my knees were constantly aching. I decided to switch to Brooks and almost instantly my pains were all but gone. I bought two pairs; one for the bulk of the remainder of my training and the other for the race itself. When race day came, I was so glad to have my new shoes! A 26.2 mile distance is brutal on the body and at the halfway point, the joint pain started rearing its head again even with my new shoes. By the time I reached the finish line, I was in serious pain. I was so grateful for my Brooks shoes; if I had stuck with the other brand, I likely would not have finished.
Now, I wear my Brooks running shoes as I train for my first ultra-marathon, and I am glad to declare that I am completely pain free!
