My Marathon Shoes

This week I decided to make the first step towards running my marathon and go out and purchase my marathon shoes! I can't believe my marathon is just 6 short months away! 

Here they are! 


I believe good shoes are the most important necessity when it comes to running. These are the top three reasons I believe this. 

1. No blisters
Blisters are the worst. I use to get blisters all the time but since I have began purchasing my shoes from gorunwichita I haven't had any issues! I highly suggest you go there if you are a new runner. They are very helpful and will make sure you are 100% satisfied with their product. 

2. Confidence
Because who doesn't love a cute new pair of shoes? Knowing that your shoes are going to hold up while running long distance gives you the confidence you need to keep going! 

3. Give your feet the structure they need.
This is a pretty obvious one right? This way your feet don't fall apart while you are running! You never want to stop running because your shoes are not giving you the support that they need.

Don't forget to take good care of your running shoes. They are expensive and should be treated like they are. If at all possible avoid running in the rain. This brings up bigger possibilities of getting them dirty and wet which may damage the shoes. 

I highly suggest having a pair of outdoor running shoes and a pair of indoor running shoes. This makes your shoes last much longer! Then on the race day you can choose which pair of shoes you want to wear.

I am so excited to take you all through my marathon training journey. If you are interested in training for a marathon let me know. Maybe we can even sneak in a few runs together! 

Until next time, 

Janelle
