Running shoes are awesome, thanks to technology: protection, cushioning, comfort. Our feet really say "thanks".
But there's a nuance š#izja19877
When it's too soft, the foot relaxes, the brain loses control, forgetting that the foot should actually be working.
How to avoid this trap:
š£ Lightly engage your toes while running
š£ Imagine the shoes are like a wet sock (control kicks in instantly)
š£ Run a few laps with full focus on footwork
š£ Practice running barefoot
Shoes help. Mindfulness enhances. And together, it's a whole new level of running š
