How long do running shoes last?

Generally, good quality running shoes last for somewhere between 300 and 500 miles of running, depending on the surface the wearer is running on and their level of pronation. This means on average regular runners are changing up their running shoes every six months or so.

How should running shoes fit?

Your running shoes should fit tightly enough that your heel won’t move while running but loose enough at the other end that you can wiggle your toes. It’s good to have a thumbnail’s worth of space between your toes and the end of the shoe, while the sides and rear of the shoe should feel snug but never tight.

What are trail running shoes?

Trail running shoes are running trainers designed specifically for running off-road on trails, hills and mountains. Compared with road and track running shoes, trail running shoes generally have enhanced grip, ankle support and weatherproofing, allowing the wearer to reach their goals across even the toughest of terrains.
