Had to happen eventually. It's been about a year since the last pair
finally gave up the ghost. I knew these were worn, but didn't expect
they were done yet.
Then my right foot started getting surprisingly wet during runs. First
few days of this I chalked it up to heavy rain, snow, water on the road,
etc. Then had a couple days nearly completely dry conditions outdoors,
still was a little wet in my right foot. Then while running one of
those Brooks shoe sole "pods" came loose and fell off, kinda like the
heat shield protective tiles of the space shuttle. That's when I
realized that the sole of the shoe, especially under that loose and now
gone tile, was worn through and leaking water into the shoe.
So I've retired another of my Brooks Radius pairs of shoes and moved on
to the next. I'm a little worried because that takes me from 12 pairs
down to 11, or maybe 10. I stockpiled them when I realized that the
Radius IV was just right for me about 3-4 years ago.
