Asics Gel DS Trainer has been my go-to shoe for quality sessions and races (5k/10k/Half) for the last few years but the recent models are not for me - specifically the plastic "studs" on the front foot make it really hard underfoot.
Can anyone suggest some alternatives?
I'm looking for something to race in plus 2/3 quality sessions a week, should have enough to it for faster long runs in the 15-17m range. Half marathon time is 1:17.
I think the Adidas Adizero Adios is a similar weight/heel drop, and looks good, but using the filters on their website it doesn't come up as a neutral road show for some reason. Is their Tempo range the DS Trainer equivalent?
Any other suggestions welcomed - based in the UK
Cheers
