Running shoes have more cushion on the bottom of the shoe and have different heel shapes.
You can easily find great running shoes for under $80 if you know where to look.

    The big difference is the walking shoes, heels are not square or flat, because walkers land heel first, and roll onto the foot.
    The running shoes are usually flat on the back of the shoe, that is square and not rounded up.
    You can find many quality shoes for under $80.
