My New Asics GT2110
I forgot to mention how my new Asics GT2110 fared on their first run. I only ran around 8K/5M, about 2/3 of my normal run, but they felt comfortable from the start, just as new running shoes should feel. Of course the true test will be when I take them out on a longer run - but this will happen first after my 50K race.
I also tried out a shorter pair of running short like those I see so many runners wearing at races. I usually stick to longer running shorts, typically spandex-type material because I've never had chaffing problems with these. But I recently bought a couple new pairs of sythetic material short shorts to see if chaffing would be an issue. Despite the shorter run my legs were already starting to chaff - not good. I'll try them again on another run together with Body Glide, if the chaffing problem continues they go in summer clothes closet - which will be too bad as they are really comfortable otherwise.

i have a pair of 2110s for the road running that i do. i feel if i am going to hit the asphalt, then i want the right shoe and these are very comfortable and help with stability, if that is an issue.i still need to work out the shorts issue. are your longer spandex shorts simply bike shorts or are they special for running? i am quite a novice when it comes to figuring out which shorts to get.

I love Brooks Adrenaline. The only shoe made for my weird foot. My husband loves Asics Cumulus.
