Any controversial/unpopular opinion that you may have in regards to running

My hot take is that Adidas shoes > Nike

    New Balance has a few of their lines with a Gore-Tex liner. I’m not sure how well it’d stand up to heavy downpours, since you’d be getting water coming in where your foot goes in to the shoe, but puddle and such, they’re champs. I wore them walking through a grassy field that was wet from a recent downpour and my socks and feet stayed perfectly dry.

      I’ll check it out! Some of the paths/trails I run are more of a puddle/washout problem, so that sounds perfect.

      I’m also not above taping some saran wrap around my ankle to keep water from running into the shoe… If it’s raining, there won’t be witnesses to my ridiculousness!
