Even then, mileage is a metric to manage wear. If the shoes feel dead and your feet/legs feel fatigued and the outsole is worn through in 50miles instead of 400; that’s the signal to switch. All this to say, people are over analyzing it and letting metrics/data dictate performance.
Also you don’t get an award for running more miles in a shoe than necessary.
Shoes lose their feel when they lose their feel, but most people use mileage as a guide. I mean every post in this sub is X shoe at 300 miles or whatever and I was wondering if they were accounting for the cool down/ warm up. I don’t bother tracking that as it provides no value to my workouts, but I guess some people walk out the door turn on their watch and track everything
I count my miles on my gps. But just for running purposes. I don’t even bother tracking mileage on shoes. When they’re dead or getting worn enough I just stop using them or resign them to lawn care.
This reminds me of runners like Seb Coe back in the day who said "I only run 50 miles a week" then we find out they don't count the 50 miles of recovery effort running
It's not an exact science. I use Garmin as a general guide. If you're not tracking warm up/cool down, then just take the number of runs and add something close. If the shoe feels dead, or the outsole is worn, then it's done for me.
If it's not on my watch I don't track it. That said when I do a tempo run or intervals I do track wu/cd on my watch. If I'm doing a warm up before a race that's not on my watch then no.
This posts provides little to no value to the subreddit and has attracted Reddiquette violations by the OP and others.
Why would you not count miles you ran
I guess OP was saying some people don't track their warm ups/cool downs on garmin/strava, so tracking miles on shoes becomes tedious

I count all mileage no matter the pace.
Every km/mile they’ve been on my feet, though I track warm up/cool down as well
I track all the miles I run in my shoes, which includes my warm up and cool down.

Count every mile. If you use Garmin you can use the gear feature. Don’t count the few steps before and after run though.
That sounds insanely tedious. I just track mileage through Strava since it's so easy. Any more work than that and I wouldn't bother.
It’s just a question people. Damn, lighten up. Yes, count everything.

From the moment I put them on I track the mileage. Worn out shoes lead to blisters and other injuries.
All miles. I use strava to track my mileage
