Equipment Part 1: Shoe

For the past year I have been a Nike man. Going through 3 pairs of running shoes and being happy about each of them. Recently Nike has begun to push the SHOX line or the 360 and their shoes are generally getting narrower, so I have switched over to Asics - Asics Gel 1110 to be exact. So far I am very impressed with the shoe [during the break-in period]. This shoe features SpEVA® midsole material which provides midsole durability and shock attenuation, GEL® cushioning system which offers enhanced stability and shock absorption and AHAR® Heel Plug which provides durability at the impact zone. I am looking forward to start using them next week in week #2 of training for the Chicago Marathon.
