Running trainers (14 replies)

I know we’ve got a few runners on here. By docs orders I need to be exercising daily so I’ve been back in the gym on the treadmill this week. I’m doing a mixture of walking and running so far, averaging an hour a time and doing 7 to 8k. Question.. is it worth investing in half decent running trainers if it’s just treadmill work? I understand how a good shoe is important in pavement running.
