If you use a running watch or another device to track your workouts, you probably have plenty of data to dig into after a run. But what does all that running form data actually tell you?

Selecting the Right Run Shoes
With so many running shoes on the market, choosing the right pair can feel overwhelming, whether you're buying your first pair or thinking about trying a new brand. This week, Coach Nolan McKenna returns to the podcast to help us navigate the world of running shoes and find the right fit for our individual needs. Nolan works at a running shoe store and recently represented Team USA at the Ultramarathon World Championships in India, so he’s logged plenty of miles in all kinds of shoes. Nolan walks us through the steps he takes with runners looking for new shoes and shares some of the biggest mistakes runners make when choosing a pair (so you can learn from others who figured it out the hard way). He also breaks down what really matters when selecting a shoe, why color and style shouldn't be the deciding factors, how many pairs you should have in rotation, and when it's time to replace them. By the end of this episode, you'll be ready to head to your local running store with the right questions to help you find your perfect pair.
