ReplyDeleteI currently have the Ghost 2 and love them. I would like to see what changes are in store for the 4 and add them to my growing collection of trainers for my first marathon.
ReplyDeleteI would alternate my new Brooks in with my current Asics trainers. I get to run doubles every now and then, and a second pair of shoes would be better, especially on double days.
