I've been lucky enough in my 4 years of running to have no real injuries (had mild shin splints once but that's it) but the Reebok floatrides 1.0 and now 2.0 have been spot on for me. You can get your running gait analysed, probably not in this climate, and have shoes tailored for you if not mistaken.....don't recall where likeAnyone got any much needed advice on running shoes? Would love to know what others are wearing as im having major problems with knee pain. I have been reduced to walking only because of it for about 4 month now. My problem started about 8 months ago and i tried to persevere, rest for a couple weeks here n there but no change. Within 5-10 mins of running the outer part of my left knee starts to hurt and within a minute im in agony and have to stop. Strange thing is i can never sort of pin point exactly where the pain is coming from but anyway.
Ive always wore adidas adios for all my running, indoor on a treadmill, outdoor on pavement and off-road but speaking to a couple of family members they have suggested maybe change my running shoes to a more cushioned shoe as the cushion on mine are quite thin. I have my doubts as ive worn these for about 6/7 years (not the same pair) now and never had a problem with them.
That said, im absolutely willing to try a new pair and see if it makes any difference.
Originally designed for top marathon runners, these sleek neutral shoes for men combine ultralight materials with adidas' most responsive cushioning. The highly breathable mesh upper offers a locked-down fit for racing and fast training.Anyone got any much needed advice on running shoes?

Thanks for reply, do you think my adidas shoes are a potential problem ? I dont have a roller but im looking up it band as i type this, see what i can find and if it correlates with my symptoms.Originally designed for top marathon runners, these sleek neutral shoes for men combine ultralight materials with adidas' most responsive cushioning.

To me, it sounds like you're having it band issues. Have you got a foam roller?
Go on the brooks website, do the shoe finder thing. I would reccomend either glycerin or ghost, both a neutral trainer but glycerin has more cushioning.
Got back to some running this week, first time since August. Had been struggling with a sore knee and finally got the time to get stuck into the physio to tidy that up, so took a few tentative steps around the block. Now it's all about getting back to where I was in the summer, when I was just about to break 25 mins for a 5k. Feels like I'm starting from scratch again, which is a bit frustrating. Knee held up fine, though, so that's encouraging. Just want to push the distance a little bit with each run for now until I'm doing 5k comfortably again.

Massively, they won't have much cushioning or support.Thanks for reply, do you think my adidas shoes are a potential problem ? I dont have a roller but im looking up it band as i type this, see what i can find and if it correlates with my symptoms.
Thanks for your advice, will look at giving a new pair of shoes a try. I got nothing to lose.Massively, they won't have much cushioning or support.
Years ago I had a bad knee, I had the wrong type of trainers.
