After determining that my most recent string of injuries was due primarily to my shoes off I went to get fitted. After being assessed for what shoes would fit me best for what I was looking for. After trying on several different styles, types, and brands I ended up deciding on two pairs. One for everyday training and longer races, and one that was a bit more minimal as I am thinking of transitioning into a more natural fore foot running style. For my basic trainer I went with the Mizuno Precision Wave 11, and for my minimal I went with the Brooks Green Silence. I have noticed a fair amount of improvement in my pain and I have only done a few runs in each. I will have to do formal reviews of the shoes once I get 50 or 60 miles on them. My other minimal shoe, which I will be getting for trail running unless I find something better will be the NB minimus. Getting new shoes has renewed my excitement and love of running. I can't wait to give up the reviews for these on here. Hopefully it will only be a couple of weeks before I get enough time in them to give a fair review.
