Need running shoe recommendations

[Heisenberg]

So I'm going to start running again. I had to stop awhile ago because my knee and hip were really hurting. I'm going to switch from a treadmill to a soft track but I need shoe recommendations. Before I was using old basketball-type shoes which was part of the problem I think. What shoe out there has a good deal of padding? I'm also thinking of using inserts as well. Hopefully, different shoes and surface will keep the pain from coming back.

If your knees & hip were really sore, maybe you should try some different cardio (swimming, biking, etc.).

get nike airs or asics gel.

i prefer asics gel.

if you're going to run on consecutive days, get an extra pair of sneakers so you can alternate pairs. that will help with the cushioning.

My running shoes are usually New Balances...but there are so many different kinds you really just have to match them to how your feet are shaped.
