The Best Running Shoes Online

Running is one of the best ways to exercise and a great way to stay fit and enjoy life. The most important thing that a new runner needs to buy is a good pair of running shoes.

Running puts a lot of stress on your body, so it is important to follow a beginners run/walk program in order to get your body used to running, but it is more important to get a good pair of running shoes.

Do not go to some big box store and look for a pair of running shoes based on how they look. Do not try on a pair of men's running shoes, or a pair of women's running shoes and base your decision solely on how they feel in the shoe section of your big department store.

Go to your local running store and ask an employee to fit your feet for a good pair of running shoes. They will size your feet, watch how you walk and determine the type of foot you have. Pronation plays an important role in what type of running shoe you need, and the employees are trained to know how to fit you for the correct running shoe that will best benefit your foot type.

A good running store employee, after examining your feet, will ask you about your running. He will gather some information and then bring out a few different pairs, and a few different brands of running shoes. Do not worry about what pair looks best or how they will match your running clothes. A good pair of running shoes are bought based on function not form.

Try on the different pairs that the employee chooses for you and compare them to each other. The best way to work your way through the options would be to choose shoes that feel best and eliminate ones that do not.

Make sure that you walk around the store and get a good feel for how the running shoe fits to your foot. If the running store is a good one, they may even let you run outside. Take a trip around the blog and see how the running shoes feel when you are running on the street.

Be sure to choose the best running shoe for your foot type. Whether you need a men's running shoe or a women's running shoe, you need to make sure that you select the best running shoe for you so that you can enjoy a lifetime of running goodness!

New Balance 769 Running Shoes



The New Balance 769 running shoe is a stability shoe that retails for $100.

It features an improved fit from the previous model and has a more sculpted forefoot.

Wear testers have said that this running shoe wraps the foot nicely and has a nice snug fit. The shoe is relatively light weight.

The New Balance 769 has a thicker piece of foam in the heel for improved impact protection. It is also one of the stiffest shoes in the stability category for the spring season.

Runners World magazine recommends the New Balance 769 running shoe for larger runners with low to normal arches who are looking for a stable shoe.

The running shoe looks good in the yellow and silver color. The New Balance 769 running shoe is a must try for those needing a stable shoe with good impact protection.

New Balance 560 Running Shoes

My first pair of New Balance Running Shoes were the MR560. I made the mistake of skipping the shoe fitting at a Running Store, and decided to go to a department store to get a cheaper price. Bad mistake.

I went to Kohl's because I saw the the prices in their ads for Running Shoes were very cheap. I think that this is because many of the shoes that they carry are out of production or may be overstocks. Not a problem, if you know what type of shoe to get, and do not mind yesterday's technology.

When I tried the New Balance Running Shoes on in the store, they felt great. This was because the running shoes I was using prior to this were a very crappy pair, and in relative comparison these New Balance shoes felt like heaven.


I bought the pair of 560 with N-Fuse technology in the mid sole. At the time I had no idea what this meant, and still really do not know. It is yet another gimmick to get you to buy shoes. The shoe has not been in production for some time now, But I was able to find this picture online.

These are nice shoes, but they are not the type that I need for my foot, and they are pretty plain to look at. I like shoes that stand out and make you say "wow".

So my next pair of New Balance Running Shoes will be something a little more loud. Something that stands out and says "look at my shoes."

So in my next post I will be looking for the craziest looking pair of New Balance Running Shoes, and talk about what makes them great.
