I want to start running for exercise but not sure what to do about running trainers. Is it advisable to have a running (gait) analysis or can I just go shopping and try loads on to find a comfy pair? I’m aware that they need to be half a size bigger to allow for feet swelling.
I don’t mind having a gait analysis but I’m seeing mixed messages. Some say it’s vital to prevent injury’s and others are saying there no evidence it will make a difference. If I don’t have one done can I just look at my old shoes to figure out where I need support? Finding it all a bit confusing.
Need advice from experienced runners 🙂
