you should definitely buy some running shoes unless your feet feeling like they are broken

No, I'm a track runner, I run cross country and the 1600 for Texas Tech university, you need actual running shoes for average type running... for serious running you need to get cross-fit shoes, free run shoes, or flex shoes, nike free run 5.0 are good shoes to start with, I use NIKE Zoom Victory Track Shoes for my running, though they intend I use under armour shoes yet I prefer nike

you're also bound to get an ankle injury if you run with shoes like that
