good running shoes cheap

Hi I am trying to start walking to get in shape. But my ankles start hurting after i've been walking awhile. Any advice on what type of shoe to get or how to build my ankle muscles? I currently walk in regular tennis shoes.

    The best walking shoes have a low heel, which allows your foot to have a smooth rolling motion when you walk. Unfortunately most athletic shoes on the market have a raised heel. That isn't anatomically correct and can cause joint pain. Try walking in simple Keds or Converse. If they feel too hard, slip in a gel or foam insole.
