Also tried out some new Adidas Megabounce trainers that were on sale at the Finish Line and I'd say they're basically the same as the Nike Shox but with a little less support in the upper and a little more cushioning in the sole. Good shoes, they do the job. My fourth pair this year (2 shox, 2 megabounce) - all still in use, I rotate, they say it makes them last longer, I aim to get 400 to 500 miles on each pair. I like that both shoes have a big fat heel - I don't know for certain that this equates to more cushioning, but it sure looks and feels that way, and I'll take a good placebo effect any day.

The shoes look good, and I would also go for the placebo effect. It's all about perception.
ReplyDeleteHow is the shoe-rotation working for you? And are there any great differences between the pairs? Or do they run about the same (support, cushioning, etc.)
nice job on the non-race 5k! speedy.
ReplyDeletewhat kind of garmin do you have? i think i have decided on the 405 w/ hrm (but not the cx - i don't like blue and yes i will base my decision on color!) :)
