Many people often say that running is the simplest exercise. As long as you start moving your legs, you have mastered all the techniques of this sport. But this is not the case. Many novice runners make mistakes when they first start running. If not careful, these mistakes can unknowingly cause many injuries.


One of the most common mistakes is that some novice runners run in casual shoes instead of running shoes or sports shoes. Obviously, running in casual shoes is very unsuitable. In this case, it can easily cause problems such as bleeding toes and knee injuries.


Therefore, for many novice runners, choosing the right pair of professional running shoes is extremely important. Running shoes can effectively protect your feet, knees, and other parts, and to some extent, help you avoid corresponding injuries or damage.

How important is it to choose the right running shoes?


According to sports scientist Nicholas Romanov, since the 1970s, about 80% of runners have experienced sports injuries each year, a large portion of which are novice runners. Novice runners often suffer from knee wear, leg muscle strains, plantar fasciitis, and other injuries due to wearing non-professional running shoes and incorrect running posture.

Running is a high-intensity exercise. No matter how slow you run, it will cause severe impact on your knees and ankles, with the impact force being about 3 to 5 times your body weight. Therefore, we need something to absorb the impact instead of our knees, protecting our bones and joints. This is where running shoes come in. Often, running shoes are not designed to make you run faster but to prevent injuries while running.


Running shoes are indeed very important for running. Wearing an unsuitable pair of running shoes can be a disaster. If the running shoes are not suitable, they can cause a series of injuries such as toe abrasions, Achilles tendonitis, and runner's knee.

What features should a good pair of running shoes have?


So, what features and functions should a good pair of running shoes have? Simply put, they can be divided into the following three points:


1. Cushioning and shock absorptionUndoubtedly, alleviating the impact of running on the knees is the most important function of running shoes and the most valued performance by runners.


2. Lightweight and breathableOnly when the shoes are lightweight can runners feel unburdened during exercise. With the arrival of summer, breathability and sweat-wicking are also points that many runners pay great attention to.


3. Anti-slip and wear-resistantThe durability of the sole often determines the lifespan of the running shoes, and in rainy and slippery weather, the anti-slip function of the running shoes becomes particularly important.

Is choosing the expensive one necessarily the right choice for you?


Since many novice runners lack experience in purchasing running gear, they often don't know how to choose running shoes and tend to buy the expensive ones. However, is choosing the expensive one necessarily the right choice? Actually, it is not.Everyone faces different situations when choosing running shoes.


Choosing a pair of running shoes involves factors such as your gender, age, weight, speed, running conditions, arch type, pronation, initial landing part of the foot, foot width and type, preferred brand, target price, and many other factors.


Moreover, as your running experience, physical fitness, and weight change, the movement pattern of your feet may also change. Therefore, choosing running shoes must be based on your own situation to ensure the best protection for your feet.


Choosing the expensive one is not necessarily the right choice, but choosing the right one is definitely correct.

Whether you are a novice or an expert, choose this one!


To address the above difficulties faced by novice runners, Codoon collaborated with over 100 professional running coaches to design and develop the Codoon Smart Running Shoes 10K over a period of more than a year. These smart running shoes not only protect your feet but also correct your running posture. Their mission is to help more running enthusiasts develop scientific running habits from the start and enjoy running healthily and for a long time.

Double cushioning to protect knees and legs


For many running enthusiasts, the standard for evaluating a pair of running shoes is their cushioning performance. After all, the impact of running on the knees cannot be ignored. The Codoon Smart Running Shoes 10K use high-rebound EVA soles, segmented shock-absorbing pads, and a water-drop-shaped transition area to dissipate the impact when your feet hit the ground, perfectly protecting your knees.

The forefoot of the sole is specially filled with high-elastic shock-absorbing materials that are not commonly used in regular entry-level running shoes, greatly alleviating the impact on the forefoot and toes during running. Both the heel and toes receive systematic protection.

Lightweight and breathable, run like the wind


The weight of running shoes is also a concern for runners. Heavier running shoes can easily become a burden during running. Ultra-light running shoes can make you feel like you are flying, without any sense of drag. Each Codoon Smart Running Shoe 10K weighs about 270 grams, roughly the weight of a bag of breakfast milk. Being lighter allows you to run farther.

The upper has high-density ventilation holes, forming a four-way stretch air mesh that allows air to flow more smoothly inside and outside the shoe. The specially paired memory foam insoles remain elastic even after millions of steps. They are also anti-odor and moisture-absorbing, allowing sweat and odors to dissipate, keeping your feet clean and comfortable.

Anti-slip and wear-resistant, fearless of terrain and weather


Runners who frequently participate in running activities are often affected by weather conditions, especially on rainy days, which have a significant impact on runners. In wet and slippery conditions, the grip requirements for running shoes increase significantly.
