The way I look at it. Trainers wear out. Cushioned tarmac running shoes at a pretty specific rate. Having more trainers spreads the wear, and can in fact reduce it, by having more suitable trainers for each type of running/conditions etc.
I have....
Asics DS trainer - Fast pavement runs. Asics Kayano - Long pavement runs Inov8 Roclite GTX - wet/cold trail runs Montrail Leona Divide - Dry/hard surface trail runs
Both the trail shoes are well cushioned and supportive. Hence my desire for something lower and more flexible.
Or maybe I should get some studded jobbies. Near killed myself a couple of times last winter. http://www.icebug.se/dm_pictures/Anima_BUGrip_Emerald-poison_WEB_1361_SdU012.jpg.img) http://www.icebug.se/dm_pictures/Anima_BUGrip_sole_poison_WEB_1362_20301V.jpg.img)
