Do i have to do a running test when i buy new running shoes?

New runners should stay away from advanced shoe.

beginner in my opinion buy common neutral running shoes. Don't do a running test. A neutral running shoe is fine to start with, when you become more experienced then make a shoe test and buy some more expensive shoes by using the test.

How you can make your own test.

You can make your own test by taking a baking plate, and fill it with 0.5 cm of water. Set foot into the water and then press you foot gentle on to a piece of paper you will get a footprint.

You can also use your old running shoes.

Turn your shoes at on the with the sole up.

Pronation: If your shoes are worn on the inside of the forefoot and heel exterior is worn.

Neutral: If your shoes are worn on the inside of the forefoot and the heel is just a little worn.

supination; If your shoes are worn on the front foot outside.

The methods are not 100%, but they give a good indication of how you run.
