My personal experience of Fastwitch is out of date but might be of interest. I really liked version 4 for racing (still holds my London Marathon course pb) but went off them for version 5 when they lowered the stack height by a few mm, and for me lost a nice cushiony feel, and made my arch sore over a half marathon. A running club mate works in a running shop and really rates the newest version; if I hadn't swapped to wearing more neutral shoes I'd definitely consider them again.
...edit... Just been looking at version 9, still only 4mm stack height, and described as firm. I'd be concerned that they still wouldn't be great for me racing over longer distances, compared to say a more cushioned but lightweight neutral shoe with more stack height.

Does anyone have any opinions on the Saucony Fastwitch range? I do much better in shoes with support and these seem the only fast/light options. I've tried neutral shoes before but they don't work out for me.
