running shoe review

June 29, 2009

It’s funny how the normal can be viewed as “weird.”  I’ve always had numerous running shoes all over my house, garage, and closets.  They only last 200-300 miles and then they’re retired for my walking pleasure.  My fiance, every so often, makes a funny comment about the shoes strung all over the place.  He’s never seen the likes of it.  Well, he hasn’t lived with a runner, now has he?  Fortunately, he actually thinks it’s one of my cute qualities, so I’m safe.

So here’s my collection of shoes for the year.  I’ve worn Mizuno Precisions for years.  They’ve changed the model ever so slightly.  The result is 2 missing toenails–my second toe on each foot.  No more Precisions.  I hate looking for a new shoe.

The winners this year:

Long run training days:  Mizuno Wave Riders

Shorter tempo runs:  Mizuno Precisions  (until this last pair of shoes) and Brook Burn

Track workouts:  Nike LunaRacer

Race Day:  Saucony Fast Twitch

Every other day?  My Reef flops.
