My New Balance MR662SSY Running Athletic Shoes
The New Balance shoes that I got for myself. I'm ready to run!
New Balance MR662SSY running athletic shoes. Wow, that’s a mouthful. Wish these shoe manufacturers can have a more friendly name for their products. Anyway, it was quite a challenge finding running shoes yesterday. After getting my running gait analysis at Runnr and found that I’m an over-pronator, and thus needs one for stability, I was not ready to plunk in four thousand pesos plus (P4,000+) for those fancy, high technology, running shoes they only have at their shop. It was kind of a disappointment, really.
I want to consider myself as a beginner. Not that I haven’t ran before, but this time, I want to make it as scientific as possible. Starting from scratch. And that also extends to my running shoe budget. I was thinking at the vicinity of around P3,000 that’s why from the Bonifacio Global City, I went directly to Shangri-la Mall and SM Megamall in EDSA to check out the athletic shoe stores.
No luck. While many stores were having a sale, the price point I was looking for wasn’t there. It never helped also that an attendant from Nike didn’t seem to know what stabilized running shoes are! Unfazed, I rode the MRT and went hunting in Glorietta and SM Makati where I finally found one at 30% off.
The New Balance MR662 men’s running shoe is the perfect choice for entry level or beginner runners. This lightweight training shoe offers cushioning and stability in a breathable synthetic and mesh package. The injection-molded EVA midsole absorbs shock and ABZORB® cushioning enhances your comfort. The rubber outsole of the New Balance MR662 running shoe delivers reliable traction and grip on a variety of surfaces.
Just right on my feet. I also bought some Nike running socks but found out later that there was another pair cheaper than the one I got at another store. Darn. Anyway…
After checking out coolrunning.com’s couch-to-5k running plan, I’m now ready to hit the road.

Like your comment. Perhaps men dress shoe information could guide someone out there.
