My child is 10 years old; he runs on an indoor track. In summer I’m gonna bring him with me for outdoor running through the city.
Should I buy special running shoes for him, with more sufficient cushioning, for instance, as I run on concrete surfaces mainly?

Good afternoon!
I’d like to notice that there are also some restrictions in running duration for a 10-year-old child. In other words, at this age game-based trainings including elements of active games should prevail, not monotonic cyclic loads. It’s a good way to develop power and speed.
Running shoes with maximum protection should indeed be used for running on new and especially hard surfaces. So, I would highly recommend you to select running shoes suitable to meet the new challenges.
Good afternoon.
Tell me, please, what running shoes I should choose to run a marathon?
Should a size of running shoes be more than a size of my regular shoes?
Good afternoon.
Please, advise me what running shoes I should choose for running on an indoor track (in a stadium). I don't run a lot on the asphalt so I need running shoes for running in a stadium.
Thank you.
Good afternoon, Oleg Sergeevich.
I have longitudinal flat feet, II grade. Usually, the doctors, of course, think I'm crazy because I run with a flat feet. But I know many people with the same diagnosis who run like me and don't have any problems.
I have two questions:
Thank you!
Good afternoon, Oleg Sergeevich.
Thank you so much for helping beginners.
I'd like to know which running shoes (or other shoes) are suitable for training (not running but walking at a brisk pace) in sub-zero weather?
I'm choosing running shoes for regular running but I have a problem - my knees and foot hurt sometimes. I was going to choose shoes from Asics models but the consultant advised me to buy Hoka running shoes. What do you think about this brand?
