Best running shoes for Indian roads under ₹8000?
I run about 30 km per week on a mix of tarmac roads and park trails in Delhi. My current shoes (Nike Revolution 6) are worn out after 500 km. Looking for recommendations under ₹8000 that can handle the rough Indian road surfaces – potholes, gravel patches, uneven footpaths. I have a neutral gait and weigh 75 kg. Cushioning is my priority because my knees take a beating on hard surfaces.
Training plan for first half marathon in India – any tips for Indian weather?
I've been running for 6 months and can comfortably do 10K in about 58 minutes. I want to run the Tata Mumbai Marathon half marathon in January 2027. That gives me about 10 months to prepare. I run early mornings (5:30 AM) because the Bangalore heat is brutal otherwise. Looking for a realistic training plan and specifically tips for training in Indian weather conditions – humidity, heat, pollution etc. I've read many Western running guides but they don't address these factors at all.
