Save 40% on Running Shoes Each Year with Blumaka Insoles

By Stuart Jenkins, Chief Innovation Officer, Blumaka

I love running and I need my shoes to protect me from the road. That is why I was an early adopter of oversized cushioning: I want to run a lot of miles and not have the common injuries associated with the constant pounding of the pavement.

The dirty little secret of most running shoes is that they go flat or lose their cushioning in about 200 miles. Back when I was training 100 miles a week for the Olympic trials marathon, I needed a new pair of shoes every two weeks. High mileage runners are now spending $400 a month just on running shoes (or at least they should be). 

Even now, maintaining my 4-mile-a-day habit means I buy 7 pairs of running shoes a year, costing around $1,400. This means that for every one mile I run, I spend $1 on cushioning. 

That was until I invented the Blumaka insole. These high-performance insoles provide cushioning that lasts 1400 miles and, when paired with a top-quality running shoe will extend the effective life of the shoes from 200 miles of comfort to 350 miles. Now you can buy your favorite Adidas, Asics, Brooks, or Nike running shoe just four times a year and add a Blumaka insole for $60 (for a total cost of $860), or just 61 cents per mile. In other words, you spend 40% less money protecting your body from the pounding of the roads with Blumaka.

Blumaka insoles make the best shoes better, every run safer, every mile more comfortable and they keep your bank account happy. Blumaka insoles are just a smarter way to run.
