I'm a big Adidas fan, mainly because the shoes suit the shape of my long thin foot.
Adizero Pro are my slightly faster than Boston shoes, and Adizero Adios Pro as my cheat shoes.Having broken my ankle in December (have I mentioned that before?), I won't be putting the Adios Pro shoes on my feet any time soon!
Speaking of post ankle running, I stormed my way to 162nd at Hackney Marshes parkrun just gone, 24.39. boom.
I also ran a slow 5 miles today and now feel like I've run to the end of the world and back

Talk to me about race shoes.
Following a dose of bad shin splints back in February I got a run assessment and was advised to stick to shoes with stability, and ended up in ASICS kayanos. I’ve also always had custom orthotics which I always ran with for the little running I did do before last year. so between the stability shoes and insoles I’m well supported. But they are heavy compared to the nike Pegasus I previously used.
Worth noting that the physio somewhat disagreed with my need to be in stability focused shoes and that with proper strength training in the right areas any good shoe that fits would be fine.
So, my question, can anyone recommend suitable fast shoes for interval days and racing in, bearing the above in mind?
I’ve done all of my racing and training this year in the kayanos and while they won’t hold me back drastically in a 70.3, and probably no harm to have the stability when my form falls apart towards the end, I feel like proper race shoes would be good for a marathon. Every little helps.
