Running trainer advice
Questions runners ask us.
How do I choose the right running trainers?
Match the shoe to your weekly mileage, surface (road or trail), pace and any injury history. Stride's AI finder asks a handful of quick questions and shortlists trainers that fit your stride and goals.
What are the best running trainers for beginners?
New runners usually want a cushioned, neutral daily trainer with a wide base for stability — shoes like the ASICS Novablast, Brooks Ghost or Nike Pegasus are popular starting points. Use the finder for a shortlist tailored to your weight and pace.
How long do running trainers last?
Most road running shoes last 400–800 km (250–500 miles). Rotate two pairs to extend life and replace shoes when the midsole feels flat or you notice new aches.
What are the best running shoes for marathon training?
Most marathoners use a cushioned daily trainer for easy miles, a lighter tempo shoe for workouts, and a carbon-plated race shoe on race day. The Stride finder builds a rotation around your training plan.
