Okay, hear us out on this. A pair of running shoes may not seem very techy, but if you’re prepping to run a marathon, here’s where Hoka sneakers become a game changer. Each style of shoe is designed with specific sports in mind. Think running, hiking, and even orthopedic options. For the avid (or even budding) runners out there, give the Mach X 2 a go. The energy-boosting foam and plate tech give you superior support, and the rubber sole maintains traction with every step so you can train anytime, anywhere.
