Which shoes are better walking shoes or running shoes?
If you are planning on running, you do NOT want to run in walking shoes! They don%26#039;t have proper support and cushioning. I%26#039;m a runner and with the pounding, the last thing you want to do is get shoes that aren%26#039;t made for it. It is better to walk in running shoes than run in walking shoes and I suggest New Balance running. Those are my favorites ;) Too much exercise? 6 miles walking/running per day is not too much exercise.
Reply:When you are walking, use a good walking shoe. Same for running.





Too much exercise? NOT until you have 3% body fat. THEN ask the question again.

Reply:I walk in running shoes, and I have run in walking shoes. Since I started running for exercise, I always buy running shoes. I really dont know the difference, but I wouldnt run in walking shoes. If you dont want to buy a pair of both, I%26#039;d get running shoes for both activities. But all in all, these are all personal opinions, and you have to decide what is best for your feet.





There really isnt a thing as too much exercise - just be sure that you are giving your body rest. Dont exercise 7 days a week, always be sure to give your body a day off and that you are getting rest at night.
