Global Running Day is here, and if your progress has hit a bit of a plateau lately, this is your sign to take things up a notch — and not least because Sportsshoes.com has a major sale on a whole bunch of speed-focused running shoes, from fan-favorite brands like Saucony, Asics and Adidas. These shoes are all built to help you move faster, with features like carbon fiber plates and bouncy but lightweight cushioning, to encourage energy return and propel you forward.
They're not a great choice for beginner runners or anyone looking for more of an everyday trainer — if that's you, I've included some more general options (also discounted!) at the bottom of the page.
Assuming you already have a pair of running shoes, today is a great day to head out for a quick jog — a number of the big run-tracking apps are offering bonus perks to tie in with Global Running Day. Strava users will be able to snag two weeks of Runna use for free if they run a 5k today, while Apple- and Garmin Watch-wearers can pick up a 'limited edition' digital reward.
