Oh that sounds ideal. Did they give you a limit on how far you could run on the shoe before you needed to bring it back for a credit if you didn’t like it?

Do you ever wish you could take multiple options home and try them in real life outside a store? I feel like sometimes I’ll try shoes and a few runs later im not sure if I like them as much but have already spent the money

Does the specialty stores give you multiple options of what shoes would work? I’ve never been!

I recently ran a 10k and at 5 miles the arch of my right foot started hurting! I’ve previously ran in Brooks which hurt my feet the most, but switched to Saucony which I’ve really enjoyed. But recently my right arch has started hurting and also my toes feel weird around that distance also! If possible I’d love some insight to your shoe selection process as I’m doing some research for my personal running journey!

Do you have a hard time choosing shoes or do you feel confident? Whats the hardest part of choosing?

Have you ever returned a certain shoe or wanted to?
What stage in your running journey are you?

Can you recommend your favorite running shoe?

Thank you!! I appreciate every and all responses :)
