April 28, 2006, Newsletter Issue #3: Alternate Two Pairs of Shoes

Tip of the Week

Many sources recommend running in different shoes every other day. If you can't purchase two pairs of shoes at one time, expert runners suggest buying a new pair of shoes halfway through the life of your current pair. Alternating your running shoes gives the cushioning foam a more time to “recover” between uses, and theoretically increases the life expectancy of the shoes.

One thing to remember is not to alternate between a new pair of running shoes and an old pair. Shoes wear down easily, and you want to maintain the cushion and support in your shoes for proper injury prevention.
