Cheap joggers?

I don’t know the flair❔

I’ve gotten back into running post-injury and bought a pair of joggers for $240 (literally the most expensive shoe purchase of my life) and while they’re really good and I just did my first massive run with zero joint pain during or after, I want to get a cheap pair of joggers specifically so I can start running with my dog without damaging the shoes. The soles of my shoes usually disappear really fast and that would be exacerbated by running with my dog because I’d need to make more sudden stops than running alone or in a race.

Anyone know where I can get a good pair of joggers for cheap?

My joints are flimsy at the best of times so Kmart and Big W, which are where I used to get all my shoes, are no longer really suitable options. Except for my work shoes which I keep buying from Big W every few months because I shred the soles and can’t afford to replace expensive shoes that frequently.

Am I just stuck getting expensive joggers for running?

I’m planning to go back to the athletic shop to ask if they have cheap shoes I can buy but, since even their “cheap” stuff was expensive, I doubt they’ll be able to help in this regard…
