"For the street, I use Topo Athletic ST-2.
For the trail, I use Topo Athletic Runventure 2.

"Hi Charlie, I am currently running in the Altra Superiors...they are slightly narrower than the Timps I had previously, but they are very supportive and light, as well as being zero drop. My first favorite Altra was the Lone Peak 2, which had…"
"Hi Randi - If you are looking for ONE shoe for both road and trail, the Inov8 Trail Talon are excellent road/hard trail shoes. They come in both 4mm and 8mm drop depending on your strength levels and run distances. They are a great combo of…"

"There are not many zero drop options, but Altra is one. They are wide and do not fit me well and tend to be kind of clunky.

Charlie Mullane replied to Charlie Mullane's discussion New Shoes"Hi Eric thanks for the response. I am running about 6m and am working up to 13m this spring /summer. And the hope is to get back to 16-20m. I will look at the trail Talon by Inov8, are the Salomon zero drop? As all the shoes I have seen in the UK…"
"What distance and type of terrain do you mostly run? Have you looked at the Trail Talon by Inov8? I am not crazy about the new Trail Roc, but X Talon are great if you are on soft ground.
The Salomon S Lab sense are amazing minimal high performance…"

Being a newbie! I just have a few que
as I am training to run a marathon in Oct and doing the BBMC an 18mile trail over the Brecon Beacons in Wales UK.
1) I find it very hard to run short (3-4 miles) distances, i.e I don't relax until mile 4-5, I still enjoy getting out, so will it still help in my training
2) do we have our own built in speed that we run at?…
