I've had nike free v2 and they were a great starting place, they have made me midfoot strike consistently and in a gait analysis I had a pretty much perfect gait, to achieve the same result in a trad shoe I had to go for a super structured shoe, they're a nice balance between minimalist and enough cushioning. I used the v3s last night and they are much more minimalist.
If I were to try something it would be innnov8 but I'm not going to try anything new before the marathon now.
