How often? How far? On the road or in the woods?
Maybe you're an all-rounder who runs wherever your impulse takes you and on several types of surfaces. Undoubtedly, the kind of runner you are has a big impact on your choice of running shoes. Although the market is flooded with different types of running shoes, there are three main shoe categories divided by surface: Road, Road-to-Trail and Trail. These can be further divided into the two subcategories Volume training shoes and Racing/intervals shoes. Volume training shoes are generally made of durable materials that provide good stability and soft cushioning over a long period of time. Racing/intervals shoes, on the other hand, are designed to enable skilled runners to run as fast as possible, which means that the shoes are lighter and less stable and less forgiving. Which category suits you best depend mainly on how and where you run.
