Running
FROM 5-KM RUN TO RUNNING EVENT
There's more to running than just mindless jogs around the block. Different distances and speeds - sprints, middle distance and long distance. Mountain runs, trail runs or city runs challenge you in different ways. For passionate runners, competitions present new challenges. Here you measure yourself against others - for example at the biggest marathons in Germany such as the Berlin, Frankfurt or Hamburg marathons. For less trained runners, 10-km city runs or company races are a good opportunity to "compete" against other runners for the first time. Running events such as Wings for Life World Run or Tough Mudder demand team spirit, stamina and mental strength, whereby obstacle runs in the mud add new facets to the sport of running. Different running disciplines - different requirements: Special running shoes and functional clothing are an advantage - find your perfect running outfit in our running online shop.
THE RIGHT RUNNING SHOES
In the Keller Sports Running Store you will find the best models from well-known brands such as Nike, adidas, ASICS, Mizuno, Saucony, On, Puma, Under Armour or Skechers. Series classics such as Nike Free, ASICS GEL-Nimbus or the adidas Ultraboost belong firmly in the Keller Sports range, as do the latest running shoe models. We advise you on the best criteria for choosing your running shoes.
- Asphalt or off-road? Trail running shoes are the right choice for off-road running. They are suitable for any surface, from soft forest soil to gravel paths and asphalt. If you run exclusively on asphalt, choose an all-round shoe with good cushioning.
- Training or competition? If you are a professional runner, it is best to choose a high-performance, particularly lightweight model.
- Also in wet weather? If you run in rain or slush, you will want water-repellent material and good grip.
- Lateral foot support necessary? This may be necessary if your feet lean excessively inwards when rolling. This is called "overpronation". Shoes with lateral foot support are advantageous if you have a high body weight, low fitness or leg malpositions.
Shoe characteristics:
- Springback: gives extra lift for easy running
- Heel cap: gives the foot optimal support
- Upper: a supple upper gives a sock-like feel; water-repellent material is ideal for "bad weather runners".
- "Spring": the heel or difference in height between the back and front of the foot (barefoot running shoes, for example, have no spring)
