I started this year with a couple of runs and its time to dump my 2nd pair of Asics Cumulus 12. These 2 pairs lasted me 14 months. I enjoy Asics Cumulus since its 7 release up till now. I thought maybe I should explore to try out other Asics models.
My new choices are the Sky Speed 2 and Landreth 7. Both are suitable for my under pro-nate feet type, which was one of the key factors that keep me from injuries running especially with shoes that is not suitable for my feet that. I started to believe when I put on my first pair of Cumulus, the cost of it was much lower then the Kayano 10 that I was wear and also dissolved the injury I picked up from my first marathon in 2005.
Since then I become a strong believer that wearing the right shoe is important, Asics DS Trainer didn't work for me, Nimbus is ok but I thought i need a lighter shoe then Cumulus.
I come to a conclusion its Sky Speed 2 Vs Landreth 7, I have also decided that since Sky speed 2 is lighter, I'll use it for race day and if the Landreth can last, I'm using it for training. Shall start with it tomorrow and East Coasts Park for a 10-14km evening run.
Anyway, its bye bye cumulus yesterday.
