PRINCE GEORGE – To live a happy life, it’s important to have good running shoes, otherwise more areas of your life than you think can be affected.

“The first thing is that it’s got to be comfortable right, if your feet aren’t happy you’re not going to want to do anything fun, so if you we can help get you into something more comfortable, and you enjoy putting on,” says Shayne Hoehn, owner of Stride and Glide Sports

How you walk or run will dictate the kind of shoes that are best for you, it’s not as simple as grabbing the cheapest pair on the rack.

Keeping in mind that having flat feet doesn’t necessarily mean you need support, but some people with flat feet do.

“Often we see people which have some injury problems and those injury issues will help guide us into the right support of shoe for that person,” says Hoehn.
