The Importance of Quality Running Shoes


Philadelphia, Pennsylvania mental health technician Todd Belok serves patients at Temple University Hospital. Previously, he assisted at the Children’s National Medical Center as a patient care technician and at the Psychiatric Institute of Washington as a psychiatric technician. Outside of work, Todd Belok enjoys running and biking to stay in shape. 

Running is a great way to maintain both physical and mental health. Running shoes can carry expensive price tags, but quality shoes can help you sidestep blisters, rubbing, and sore feet or shins. 

Most sports stores have qualified salespeople or mechanized gait tests to help you identify what kind of shoe you should use for any sport, including running. The shoe you select should account for your unique degree of pronation, or the degree to which your foot rotates during a run. Some runners rotate too much and others don’t rotate enough - the proper shoe can correct this imbalance.
