I'm stuck in a place where i can't get good running shoes. No brooks and most of the nike shoes weren't for running. I was looking for the pegasus to replace my current ones which are pretty dead at this point i've run a lot in them over the last 3 months. The only shoe that was recommended by the people at the sport store based on what i wanted as a daily trainer easy run shoe is the Adidas Solar Glide 19. Tried it out in store, it's no pegasus i knew that, but it will have to do until i can get back home in a month or so.
I did an hour long easy run today, i don't know if it was the heat or the shoes, but boy are they heavy. I was plodding along I was barely running. It promoted a heel strike when i'm a natural forefoot/midfoot striker. I checked my cadence and it in fact did drop from 181 with other shoes to 173 average on this run.
It's an easy run shoe for me I should just put in the miles and not worry so much about the other things but July can't come soon enough!
