  1. Hi there

    new to running, can anyone tell me which trainers will be best for a
    neutral runner, I've tried Nike air pegasus which are ok, looking as
    Adidas Supernova are these a good pair to start with.

    Thanks

    I don't think there's a "best", everyone has different shaped feet and
    runs differently, so it a question of finding a shoe that feels
    comfortable to run in. It is worth going to a propper running shop and
    get some advice from people there. However, note that running shops
    are there to make money and want to sell you expensive shoes. For
    training (if not perhaps racing) you may well find that some rather
    cheaper running shoes that are perfectly comfortable. I did a lot of
    training in some shoes from Aldi that cost about £12 and were just as
    comfortable as (if a little heavier than) my £100 Kayanos...

    The girl with the biggest [censored] is the best.

    Oh, my goodness. Stand back. We've got man who's a mix of both braun
    AND brains.

    As long as you pick a decent running shoe (and both of these are), it's hard
    to pick one that's "best" for everyone. It's all about finding the one that
    works best for you.

  6. It looks like the new Asics Nimbus VIII may be better than the
    previous year, although I have not seen the new model in person. I am
    thinking of acquiring this shoe to replace my worn out Nimbae.

    Yo twit, are you clairvoyant? If you have not seen it which means you
    have not tried it on, how might you know it's better?

    And Jeffrey Dahmer's freezer looked scrumptious. Need I say, looks can
    be deceiving? Try them on or better yet, go for a long run and then
    report back. 😉

    I have theses shoes and they are Great! I am just starting to break
    them in. I have Normal Pronation. I am not sure if this shoe is good
    for over/under. Also, normal arch, not high or flat footed.
    Would recommend this shoe to people with the same foot diagnostics,
    which is key to picking the proper shoes.

    For more advice see this article in Runners World.

    Do you have the Nimbae VIII?
    I liked the version 3 years ago, but not the one available last year.
