How to transition to a lower drop shoe
Loading player...
Fantastic question been submitted for this edition of the Ask Coach Parry podcast, it comes in from Ryan Spencer. Lindsey, Ryan says he’s a keen trail runner, he does the odd 10 and 21km on the road. Off road he runs with low to medium drop shoes, he runs in Innovates and wants to move to similar on the road. Can he do this in one go, or should he gradually drop his road shoes, which obviously could turn out to be quite pricey.
The brand that he’s running in on the road now is New Balance and he knows that they do now do low drop shoes as well, he’s pretty sure. Subconsciously he’s already slightly altered his road running style to be more front mid foot with shorter steps than on the old heel strike. What’s the best way to go about transitioning for Ryan?
