Rise and Run: What shoes are best for running?

The Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon is just around the corner, and registration prices go up on Tuesday. Race analyst and trainer Mark Bravo stopped by to discuss what to look for in shoes while training for the marathon.

Bravo says the shoes you wear while running are important, and the shoes that work for one person might not work for you.

"You can hear from a friend, 'Go get a Brooks, go get a Hoka,'" said Bravo. "I'll tell you that it might be God's gift for them but not you."

Bravo says in a shoe, you want stability and a level of cushion that works for you. You also want to make sure the shoe has enough length and isn't too narrow.
