Now that we've hit August, vacation's primetime slowly draws to a close. And once we embark on what feels like – though is only unofficially – the final bout of summer, we resettle into our pre and post holiday routines, acclimate again to an everyday life, in transit between our last and our next getaway.

With that, some of us also ring in the season of running, even half or full marathons. This calls for a decent pair of – you guessed it – running shoes. That's right, we're sprinting from brat summer to flat summer – as in surfaces to run on, tummies maybe, et cetera; pardon, we really tried – and were thus on the lookout for footwear to carry us through the finish line, actual or self-imposed.

So, whether you're trying to up your personal stats, or shooting your shot at love by joining a running club, StockX's vast catalog of top-tier running shoes will supply your every need, more often than not at prices below retail.

These Nikes, too, will provide you with responsive soles, though in a colorway for those who prefer something more classic and subdued.

The Superblast 2s over here merge all of the above, conjoining a thick foam foundation to stand on, a fine mesh upper textile for breathability, and a combination of a bright, bold ombré effect with a hazy gray.

We already made a brat summer joke, but this venomous shade of green leaves us with no choice but to sprinkle it here once more. Actually, though, it's a reminder of how brats, too, can get their fitness on.

Saucony Kinvara 13

The sun'll never set on your runs, so long as you keep these evening-horizon-colored Sauconys on. They're flatter-soled for a more grounded feel.

Reversing the typical formula of running shoes, this pair's design goes for a black base with lighter bursts of color throughout, keeping things flashy but not too much so.

Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 40

$104
Buy at StockX

This cherry red member of the iconic Pegasus family is a straightforward example of running shoes. They're rather simplistic in their design, for modern running shoes – refreshing almost.

Hoka One One Cielo X1

Buy at StockX

Founded merely fifteen years ago by two former Salomon employees, Hoka has really pierced the running shoes domain – and far beyond, for good reason. This model is maximalist in every which way, as should be its wearer.
