Hi, i was wondering of the hoka challanger 7 are some good shoes for trail- and pavement running. Does anyone here have any experience with the shoe, or has another shoe recommendation for switching up the running terrain?

Hey mate, I'm using the Hoka Challenger ATR 7 shoes at the moment. Have used them for about a year. I'm running on a combination of dirt roads and tarmac. They seem to be rather good and have no complaints. Pretty comfortable with decent grip off road. I'm not light either, 100kg, so plenty of force going through them. Have been using them anytime I'm not wearing my boots for work.

This really cut through all the noise! This video needs more views! 🙂

@@PracticalHealthNow I meant in the way of very well experienced of life(i.e, grandfather)

For me the zero drop and barefoot running shoes were the way to go. I could not find any other way to remove knee pain than to change to forefoot gait. Absolutely love barefoot shoes now. Strange thing was that no shoe seller recommended them, they just tried to fiddle with many kinds of pronation supports and such, when the key was to strenghten the feet themselves by removing support by using minimalist shoes.

@PracticalHealthNow

Жыл бұрын

Lauri, great to hear that barefoot shoes helped you! Though I want to highlight that sometimes simply changing running shoes solves the problems in knees and ankles. So, I am curious, if you go back to regular (but new) shoes, whether your knee pain will come back. Keep us posted!

@CitySwimmah

Жыл бұрын

Hi, thanks for the reply. Only new "conventional" shoes that I tried recently were the Asics gel nimbus 25 shoes since my brother with same shoe size got them. That 8mm drop does make my gait more heel striking. I did get numbness in the knee, but it came much later than before, suggesting that my knee supporting muscles have propably strenghtened. There probably was a way to fix my knees with strength training. but since the 0-drop shoes transition the shock absorption more to the calves, I never felt the need to go back. I also love the ability to feel the ground below my feet. Those max cushion shoes felt somewhat unstable and thus uncomfortable, but I do understand that some people like that sense of walking in the clouds.

@Jaigarful

Жыл бұрын

Yeah I recently moved from 8mm drop shoes down to 0 and 4mm (Altra Torin 6 and Saucony Kinvara Wides), and I got a little bit more ankle pain. But its only been a week and there's definitely an adjustment period. I definitely prefer how I land with 0mm drop, and the difference in gait becomes far more noticeable on faster runs.

Used to get joint pain all the time with my Brooks Ghosts all the time, then switched to a basic pair of Xero trainers that I run on pavement and trail - now running 5ks 4 times a week with a 15 mile trail run at least once a month with no joint pain whatsoever. Just for kicks I tried the Altra Escalante 3’s for a pavement run and couldn’t make it 2 miles without severe pain in my joints and especially toes. Barefoot shoes saved running for me.
