Currently wearing Brooks Glycerin but lately the arch in one foot has been bothering me .. I know everyone is different but I did try these as well as many others on today in a lrs and I'm more curious as to how they have held up.

Thanks.

stop in LRC in midcity. The will size your foot and get you in the right pair. These guys know shoes. I run in Brooks as well, but flat footed like a mofo.

edit:::midcity nola, if you are in the area.

Well, you need to get your landing examined. I'm sure there is a place up there with a machine that performs this for customers? Perhaps call Louisiana Running company in NOLA and ask if they have a recommendation for the laffy area.

It could help. You could also try an insert, but I wouldn't do that unless you speak with someone knowledgeable enough..

I'd like to try brooks but I've loved asics since I switched from Nike and just haven't strayed from them.

I've never heard of those but you really need to have your feet and running examined by a pro. I always thought that was some hogwash to sell shoes. Until I upped my mileage from the occasional 2-3 mile runs a few times a week to the 5-6 mile runs. In a pair of Saucony shoes that were comfy at first but were more minimal shoes. I started having Achilles issues. Had to take like 4-6 weeks off when I was training for a half. I am a moderate over pronator and need cushion/support and once I switched to some Brooks Adrenaline shoes the Achilles problems disappeared.

i have run in 6-8 different brands of shoes from minimalist, zero-drop heels to maximalist super-cushioned stuff. none of them have caused injuries. you want to run pain free? follow these rules:

1. stop being fat
2. slow down fattie, you need a solid base before you do anything like a tempo or interval run
3. see rules 1 and 2
