Thanks, bro. I really like the look of those. What kind of support do they provide? Supposedly I do need some around the middle of my arch. Since I'm not running a ton of miles it really may not matter right now.washing machine wrote:Those have a similar weight and drop to the saucony kinvara 11s, which are the greatest running shoes a person can wear. Hope you get some good runs out of them, len.
I took the Freedom's on a run after work. Just did a mostly casual, moderately pace because I knew I couldn't kill myself today and also to get a good feel for them. The first two miles were a little over 10:00 and the last around 9:20. They still oddly feel heavier than the Boston's i've been using, but definitely much lighter than the Saucony Guide's. I think they strike a good balance for me in terms of my longer/slower and shorter/faster runs. I'm not going to be running consistent 8:00 minute miles anytime soon, and I know not in this pair's life, so I think they're going to work out very well. I do wish they had more design though.
I really hope I can get and stay in a rhythm now with the time change. I've stocked up on cold weather gear and really don't want to join a gym. I'll figure it out.
