I am looking for a good pair of road racing flats. Not marathon types, but really light ones. Any suggestions (I'm female if that helps)?

Really light- Adidas AdiZero PR
Sort of light, more durable- Adidas AdiZero RC DC or Pro
New Balance RC152, very light.
Thanks. I looked into those, but the PR's dont come in my size. Its obnoxious, I have small feet 6 for a girl 5 or so in mens. Its obnoxious how hard it is to find lightweight racing flats for females.
Try the Brooks T5. They come in Mens' 5 and actually tend to run a bit small, so that should work for you.
I've been liking nike's new "katana rac3r III"
Try the brooks T5, super light but very comfortable, great for 5k-Half marathon
i'm a woman (haven't been a girl for decades) with a small frame and 6.5W feet. i'm finding the asics hyperspeed 2's good as a road flat. haven't raced in them yet, but will give them a go in a 10K this weekend, and i would consider using them up to half marathon (not yet sure about longer, but am interested in others' opinions on hyperspeed 2 as a marathon shoe).
regarding sizing, i had to size up half a size from what i expected to need, requiring 5.5 ("unisex," i.e., men's), which is equivalent to 38 in european sizing.
