Road running shoes for women


Road running shoes are some of the most popular trainers on the market. That's because they move seamlessly from sidewalk to road to paved indoor track, and you can even use them on the treadmill. But finding the women's road running trainers that work for you takes a bit of self-discovery.


Understand your goals for women's road shoes


Do you run 30 minutes a day to get your cardio in, or are you training for long-distance races? The answer can change which trainers might be ideal for you, but whatever your reasons for running on the road or other hard surfaces, comfort is important.
