Welcome back to *The I Don’t Know Running Podcast*! 🏃♂️🎙️ This week, Lewis and Mitch take on one of the most essential topics for runners—**how to find the right running shoe**. Whether you’re a beginner runner or training for your first marathon, getting the right shoes can make or break your experience.
### **In this episode:**

✔️ The types of running shoes: cushioned, stability, minimalist, and more.
✔️ Key features to look for: fit, breathability, durability, and foam types.

✔️ The importance of pairing the right socks with your running shoes.
**PLUS:**
- Funny stories about running (and not running).
- Why local running stores are the BEST resource for shoe fittings and advice.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
