[quote=Anonymous]You REALLY should go to a running store and let them help you figure out what you need.  I really like Road Runner Sports.  They can do a whole thing where they check out you gait, whether you pronate or supinate (or neither), etc.  I have done Potmac River Running's version of this, but I thought the RRS was more thorough.  But I also had a real jerk at PRR, so maybe it depends on who you luck into helping you.

I have also been to Fleet Feet in Gaithersburg.  They don't do any of that, and I always had a bad experience.  I always seemed to have the bad luck of getting someone who appeared to me to have only been working there 2 days, while those around me get the semi-pro runner who knows everything and gives real service.

I wear Asics.  I have for 15+ years.  I have, here and there, tried other brands (usually at the behest of someone at the running store, like FF).  I always go back to Asics.  Also helps in these instances that I have had someone who doesn't seem to know anything to go back to my old standby.

BTW, RRS also has a VIP program.  It is 2 bucks, and you get at least 10% off every purchase.

In any case, go to a real running store, at least initially.  The wrong shoes will kill your legs and all other parts of your body and make running a bad proposition.[/quote]
