Exercise Tip- I was watching Good Things Utah today and they were talking about if investing in more expensive shoes for running is the right thing to do! I always ask myself that question when I am standing in the shoe store looking at the many shoe selections and find myself trying to lean towards the less expensive ones.
But how much to spend, exactly? Experts recommend starting at $80. Sneakers priced at $80 and above are considered "performance running" and generally last between 400-500 miles. Less expensive shoes could last just as many miles, but you'll likely develop some pain and may spend much more money repairing your body down the road. You really can't put a price on your health. Saving $40 to $50 on a running shoe is not going to make sense in the long run when you have to have a $15,000 knee surgery.
I guess its time for me to invest in some new running shoes.
