How can I convince my mom that I shouldn wear my running shoes as casual shoes too?
Tell her that running shoes should only be worn for running. If you wear them too often they get worn out and can cause injuries. Depending on how often you run, how many miles per week, you should get new shoes. Running 5-6 days a week, you should change your shoes about every 3 months. By wearing them more often that 3 month span will be shorter. Just let her know that getting a cheap pair of casual shoes will prolong the life-span of your running shoes. Running shoes are more expensive anyways, so you don’t want to have to buy them constantly. Basically just tell her you want to prevent injury and save money by getting a cheap pair of causal shoes. I hope this helps, I know how important a good pair of running shoes can be.
