Lightweight Running Shoes for Fashion

By Dame Anderson


The advantages of putting on lightweight running shoes are countless and complex. First of all when running a race of any length a weight adjustment of only a few ounces can make you run significantly faster. For training runs a lighter shoe is unmistakably going to make things much easier. Unquestionably, there are downsides to sporting super lightweight shoes that I'll talk about, but over all lightweight running shoes are the best!

In racing, any simple asset you can get over your fellow players will be a aid. It doesn't matter if it's a track meet, an off-road race, or a marathon, the weight of your shoes will play a major role in how fast you can finish. A lightweight shoe will will take less energy to lift and will provide a mental benefit by making your feet feel like walking on clouds. Making a switch to a light racing shoe is an excellent way to take seconds or minutes off your best race times.

During your weekly, non-race, runs, a lightweight shoe can be good. Imagine your toughest weekly workout. It's probably a speed workout of some kind, maybe a fartlik? Yeah, now imagine that workout with lighter shoes. You'll be running quicker and easier than ever with a newly-built pair of lightweight running shoes.

Most of the really lightweight running shoes don't have much support. So, if your feet tend to over or under pronate, you'll want to make sure you're still putting on a shoe that will allocate some amounts of support. The last thing you want to have happen is getting hurt due to the fact that you put on the wrong shoe.

Want to know what I think? Get a perfect couple of athletics shoes specific to the type of races you do. You'll most likely need spikes of some kind for a track meet, while a wide range of shoes are accessible for additional road races. For your long distance preparation runs, you'll have the inclination to ensure you've paid for a good combination of good support without adding a lot of extra weight. Your speed workouts are a toss-up. You may want to get some super-lightweight training shoes specifically for that purpose, or you could just put on your normal trainers. It's totally a matter of personal preference.
