MAKE STRIDES WITH BEGINNERS RUNNING SHOES FROM ADIDAS

Running is one of the most rewarding athletic pursuits, and it’s easy to get started: all you need is a good pair of shoes. Made with technologies like responsive cushioning and torsional stability, the right shoes can make the difference between falling in love with running and falling out of the habit after a few short weeks or months. There are a lot of running shoes out there, and the running shoes best suited to your needs will depend on a variety of factors, including where you plan to run and your running goals. Fortunately, adidas has a wide selection of running shoes for beginners, packed with performance features to help you find your stride, from breezy mesh uppers to confidence-boosting grip.

HOW TO CHOOSE RUNNING SHOES FOR BEGINNERS

One of the first things to consider when looking for good running shoes for beginners is the kind of surface you’ll be running on. Are you planning on doing most of your running on the road, the track, the treadmill or some combination of all three? There are shoes designed for each surface, and there are also ‘multi-ground’ shoes which are good all-rounders. If you haven’t logged many miles yet, it’s a smart idea to look for beginners running trainers with extra cushioning for added shock-absorption as you build strength and conditioning over time. Look for styles with extra cushioning to make the early miles more manageable. Some shoes come equipped with Cloudfoam technology. This soft, pillowy midsole cushioning absorbs impact with every stride, so your feet feel fresh even at the end of your run. Other styles have a LIGHTMOTION midsole that provides lightweight and responsive cushioning to keep you feeling light on your feet. Shoes built with Dreamstrike+, a full-length super-foam midsole tuned to take the edge off firmer surfaces, are also a good choice.

HOW FAR DO YOU WANT TO RUN TODAY?

Are you planning to run just a couple of miles each day, or are you building to something longer? Are you training for a 5K or is a marathon your ultimate goal? The distance you plan to run and the type of events you plan to enter are key factors when choosing beginner’s running footwear. The Run Falcon and Duramo franchises have good option if you’re planning on running casually or have signed up to run a 5K. If your goal is to run distances up to 10K, Questar shoes might be the right choice for you. Look for shoes with a Cloudfoam+ midsole that provides soft, springy comfort on longer runs. If you’re training for a marathon, check out our range of marathon running shoes with cushioning technologies like adidas Boost and Lightstrike that are designed for the unique rigours of long-distance running. When you choose running shoes for beginners from adidas, your new pursuit is off to a fast start.
