You run, and therefore your stride. There are three types of stride: the neutral or universal stride, the pronator stride and the supinator stride. The universal stride, which is common, is marked by a foot that turns very gently inward when you touch the ground. The pronounced stride, which is just as common or almost so, is marked by a foot that turns quite a bit more inward. This can lead to injury – and will probably require shoes specifically for pronators (with stable support). Finally, the supinator stride is the opposite: the foot tends to collapse outward. Here again, the risk of injury is quite high, and you will need to choose an appropriate shoe. Type of running shoesThe choice of shoes will depend on the appearance of your arch and your stride. Runners with a universal stride will want a shoe with neutral support, and runners with a pronounced stride will want a shoe with stable support that pulls the foot out. And for those of you with a supinator stride, there are shoes for you too – more on that later. How to choose the right running shoesChoosing the right type of running shoesEven if a shoe excels in every marathon in the world, it may not be right for your foot. Here are some tips:Understanding fit and sizingSome running shoes are narrow, some are wide, some are made to be worn with thick socks, and some are not. Pay attention to the fit of the shoe
