"Mizuno" Walking expert staff speaks shoes vol.3 "In the case of walking, you can set the time freely"

There is a lot of specialized staff who can deal with all kinds of sports at the directly managed store operated by Mizuno Corporation Esport Mizuno (Mizuno Tokyo), and we have a system that allows easy consultation. So, I talked to Mr. Seiichi Yokoyama, a walking specialist, about the difference between walking shoes and running shoes.

Is there anything to pay attention to when walking?

Yokoyama: For example, it is said that it is delayed as if you are drinking water when you are thirsty. It seems good to drink in small amounts as if you drink spit. Although it is my opinion, I think that it is a good idea to walk in the cool time such as early hours of the morning style or evening, without walking during the day of a hot day.

I hope to replenish the moisture as much as I sweat, but I think it is also important to suppress the moisture and salt content, time zone and distance.


Clothes for walking are also important. Cotton material that absorbs perspiration is also good, but if it does not diverge it will cause perspiration chill, so we recommend wear like "quick sweat sweat".

After that, if it is a hat or walking, people look down on nature and some people bring heat to the neck. When you hit the sun, it absorbs heat by that much and the amount of perspiration in the body also increases, so I think basically the way of thinking is the same as other sports.

However, in the case of walking, you can set the time freely and it is better to be walked so as not to bear a burden at your own pace.

――Certainly, the time of walking is also important.

Yokoyama: There are a lot of people saying that walking in the morning will make you feel forward positive one day, I think that it is good as a start of the day. Some even walk in the evening. I think that it is okay to do light gymnastics and stretching before doing sports and walking. While walking in the evening or in the evening, it is good to look back on that day. I think that I feel comfortable when I walk home while singing songs.

It will be how much time you can secure yourself, but I think that it may be necessary to take time for your health. People walking at night, there is also night walking. The time zone of our life has changed and there are many people now, I think that it is good to expand the walking and steadily.

――
I think walking is important for athletes.

Yokoyama:That's right. Professional baseball players are well walked in the early morning of the off season, do not they? It is difficult to walk slowly, it seems difficult to walk for people running in running, as walking faster if you walk faster.

Either one of the legs will be on the ground. I think that it is very good that the athlete walks in terms of preparing the body and knowing the balance.

――Should I wear walking shoes when walking?

Yokoyama: Everyone says it is a difference between walking shoes and running shoes, but there are a lot of people walking on running shoes. Mostly older people are walking with running shoes.

Although it is also good, running shoes are using soft sole of cushion. For example, if you are walking all the way over the futon, it will be sticky. If you are walking for a long time and your legs get tired, you may have caused by soft shoes.

――
I did not know that. What is the sole of the walking shoes?

Yokoyama:基本的に硬くなっていますし、走ればそれだけ衝撃を感じやすいと思いますので、弾むスポーツなのか足を滑らせるスポーツなのかで区分をすべきであると思いますね。 

It does not mean that the sole should not walk with soft running shoes. However, when walking a long distance firmly, there are many people who are burdened due to softness.


――Although I will be private, I have walked around Lake Biwa for 3 days in college days. When I walked 100 km on the first day, I hurt my knees and it was a very painful three days.

Yokoyama: Hehehe (haha). It is a lap of Lake Biwa (laugh).

100km
There are marathons and college students walking through the new Ome road as part of class.

――Early people who were in times without shoes walked a lot over long distances.

Yokoyama: Old people are wearing things made of straw-like straw, and when walking a long distance they seem to have been changing to new ones when they are tingling on the way. I think that the contact point between the foot and the shoes is very good because the one who is now wearing good things with cushioning properties.

当時の人達は、ほぼ裸足に近い藁を履いて歩いていますから、どうやって歩いていたのかを考えても良いかもしれませんね。藁ですとクッション性がないので、衝撃を自分の足と膝で上手く吸収していたのではないかと思います。 

When I was a pair of socks, my toes would come out and it would not have been like kicking the ground like walking with my shoes but walking with my feet on the ground. It's about time to say "Namba walking".

Since it is broken when walking a few kilometers in a pair of socks, it would have walked while holding a few feet in case of long distance walking. Because it hurts when you kick the ground with this, if you are putting your legs forward rather than raising your legs, you should have had no burden on the indirection of your knees and so on.
