I really do appreciate the run clubs saying "all paces welcome" but at the same time, I don't want to come to a running event and then run alone the whole time because I'm the only one running at my pace. It would be great to know what range of the paces are going to be at your run. happy running!
Lots of influencers are paid to promote the shoes they run in. Even friends/family will say X shoes are great! But I highly recommend going to a running store and getting fitted for a shoe for your feet. For example, for me, I can only run in Asics because at the running store they looked at my feet and talked with me about my running and we came to the conclusion that Asics are the best for me.
Shoes will impact a lot in your running, including introducing injuries. Please find the shoes that would best for your foot, not what influencers/friends/family say
While watching the ridiculousness of Trump driving on the reflecting pool, I realized that the company painting it is from Oklahoma. Is that normal? Or is this another no-bid contract that magically went to a company in a state that supports the admin?
