Running on the track in gym shoes is not recommended for any distance really. I mean, if you are just jogging a mile or so for warm up it’s probably no big deal but also think about your body type – from a physiological standpoint, you always want to think about protecting your body from now until whenever – which means using the right equipment for the right activity.

I have found that my feet swell during long walks and that not only is it wise to get wider shoes it is important to have them long enough. I go up a size to get plenty of room.
