Runners come in many shapes. I'm the kind of shape that loves running but is far from being the fastest kid on the block. My strength is having tried dozens of the best running shoes in the past – useful when creating content about running, which is what I do for a living. And as a runner, I'm genuinely excited about Adidas' Black Friday sale!

One thing everyone needs to know about runners is that there is no such thing as having enough shoes. There are always gaps in your rotation, after all! Or shoes being used up, and the foam becoming less responsive. Holes appear almost continuously in the uppers, conveniently around the time when the shoe you've been eyeballing is on offer.

Which is why I'm excited about these Adidas running deals. Some of my favourite running and trail running shoes are on offer, and so are accessories that really need replacing (my current running cap is a bit naff). Below are the shoes I'm considering myself and will likely buy this Black Friday. For offers on other brands, check out my roundup of the best Black Friday running deals, and the only ASICS Black Friday deals you need to see this year.
