Hi, Team.
In this episode of The Amazing Runner’s World Show, Jeff and Aly are talking about shoes! One of our most helpful articles for runners is the best running shoes you can buy right now. Our testers put in thousands of miles to find those few standout models. But, there are other shoes you might not have considered, which aren't on that list.
Today we look at three brand new shoes from Skechers' Aero line. Our testers have been putting them through their paces for a couple of weeks and once the reviews are in, we'll see if any of them finds a spot on our best shoes list when we next update it.

In a previous episode, Jeff and Aly answered the question: How many pairs of running shoes do you really need in your rotation? One study showed that runners who wore more than one pair of shoes had a 39 percent lower risk of injury. But which two shoes do you need? And do you need even more shoes if you plan to do workouts or races? Jeff and Aly have the answers. RW+ members can watch the full episode now.

Jeff can usually be found on the roads, racing anything from the mile to a marathon, but he also enjoys racing up mountains and on snowshoes.
