When your child goes from romping to running, it's time for them to wear the proper running shoe!
"Children can also reap tremendous benefits from running," says Candace Karu of Running Times Magazine. However, "If parents, coaches and teachers do not carefully supervise and guide young runners, there is a real possibility for damage, both physical and psychological."
Of course, making sure your children have good running shoes is an important part of protecting them. That is why we offer kids running shoes.
The American Podiatric Medical Association recommends runners aged 10 and older should have sports-specific shoes, in particular those children who are running. Specifically "After the age of 10, sport-specific shoes can help improve performance and protect the feet. With the exception of the running shoe, a degree of crossover between sporting shoes is usually not harmful to the feet of a child athlete."
The California Podiatric Association agrees:
"A good sturdy running shoe is critical because of the tremendous amount of pressure put on the foot. For example, when a teenage runner weighing 150 pounds running three miles, the cumulative impact is about 150 tons on each foot."
