Chuck taylor cons for running? are proper running shoes really that important?
Answers:
It depends on where and what your running on bro. I run to the gym and i use my cross trainers. Basketball shoes for basketball, but the Chucks? Ah... Chucks are for S8tin' and gang bangin' at least thats what i used them for. I got like 15 pairs of shoes and my favs r my Jordans... anyones.
I'm running 10k in 5 weeks. What kind of foods should I be eating in lead up to the race?
absolutely, they will provide your feet with the support & cushioning they need to prevernt injury & will also be lightweight to help you run quicker. next to every day trainers, there really is no comparison. also, if u want to run more than a few times a week you need to have several pairs of shoes so that the same stresses aren't continually put on your foot..& so ur shoes have time to "recover" between runsdefinitely, proper shoes are the most important thing you can get for running. Those Chuck Taylors will end up hurting your feet and getting you injured.
The guy at the front of the race..who drops out after a while, has he got a pace-maker?
If you're serious about running yes. Right running shoes make all the difference because they cushion your feet and there just better.chuck taylor cons are for skaters. And proper running shoes are important, you wouldn't run with heels right? i rest my case!
Can i Wear a track pants to run in the morning or night ...?
It's amazing...as kids, we used Chuck Taylors for everything.They do not give the proper support, cushion or stability needed for running.
I have 3 pairs of running shoes, all for different terrains:
Reebok DMXs for street running (excellent cushion)
Saucony for beach running (excellent stability)
Nike Air Trainers for the treadmill (OK cushion, great flexibility)
When I first started running, I used various sneakers in my closet (hiking shoes, trainers,fashion, etc.). That resulted in inflamed knee ligaments.
So, yes, proper shoes are the first step to good running!

Chucks are extremely bad for running in! Like someone else said, they were good back in the '50's, but this is 2007; we've got shoes that feel like they're custom made for your feet! Even if you're just a casual runner, you should not run in Chucks; if you're casual, any old pair of tennis shoes will do. If you're thinking about becoming serious, I'd go to a specialty running store, or somewhere like Dick's Sporting Goods and get shoes fitted for your feet. Save the Chucks for times when you aren't exercising.I need to learn how to run long distances?

Proper shoes are important...you want your knees properly aligned...and not get back problems later on in life...Does anyone know a good snack to eat before running track or cross country?
Good running shoes are the single most important piece of equipment a runner can have, other than legs. Getting the right running shoes for your biomechanics can drastically reduce your risk of injury as well as the amount of PAIN that running gives you. Good running shoes are a lot cheaper than doctor's bills. Make sure you go to a good specialty running store to get shoes, not a Big 5 or other large sporting goods store. The staff at a good specialty running store will watch you run or walk and suggest shoes for you based on the way your feet and ankles move when you step (your gait).More Questions & Answers...
