I only wanted one thing for my birthday- (well, besides a
3:29 marathon)- these babies!
I've been running in a pair of the
New Balance Minimus 10 Road Shoe for a year now and I loooooove them. Every time I slip them on my feet, I get really excited. Just like Benny in The Sandlot, they make me run faster and jump higher. I'm certain. They help me immensely with my form- the fact that I've had them for A YEAR is evidence of that; normal trainers only last me about 4 months if I'm lucky.
The only problem I have with these is that I can't run the long distances (13.1 and above) without my calves starting to cramp. It could be user error though because I typically only wear them for about 10 or so miles, and then I
run a marathon in them.
If you are looking for some great minimalist shoes, I would check them out!

New running shoes are the best! I hope you had a great birthday!
I love new running shoes:) It always makes me sad when they start looking dirty and dingy...
LOVE!! Happy freaking Birthday girl!
Now to read your marathon report...
I love those shoes birthday girl!! :)
Let me tell you my story. I'm such a lame - o and it's no wonder I don't hurt myself more than I do. So, I bought the Nike Free's, they have no drop compared to what I normally wear. Anyway, sometimes I wear them, sometimes I dig out an old pair from my closet and run in those. So, a few weeks ago I dug the Nike's out to wear in my half marathon. My calves were on fire at the end!! HAHAHAHA! What is wrong with me??
I love those NB's! They look pretty!
Happy Belated Birthday. Those are some good looking shoes.
If people can run a marathon in bare feet, I'd bet you could run one in those if you built up to it.
Happy Belated Birthday! Those look like great shoes.
Oh I missed your birthday :( HAPPY BELATED girl I love you xoxoxox and your new kicks
