In reply to Chris the Tall:
> Brooks Cascadias for me. Have found the Brooks road shoes have made a huge difference to my running (reduction in injuries), and got these for off-road
I've bee a big fan of Cascadias and had 7s, 8s, 9s and now on a pair of 10s. With the 10s though I suffered horrendous blisters on a recent 35 miler (never an issue with higher distances with the previous versions) and after about 300km there's a couple of holes appearing around the area where the little toe joins the foot. From what I've seen other people have been suffering these kinds of problems earlier.
All my previous pairs would give me 1000 miles of rocky trails with barely a scratch so this is disappointing.
I've got a small tear in the upper of my first pair of Speedcross with about 100km in the clock so will be disappointed if it turns into something much worse as aside from that they are fantastic.
