Not sure.<BR/>Am now running longer with two insoles. Seems a good idea.

I would wear them for 5k races but something with a bit more support and cushioning for 10k races. Still light, but not ultra-light.TokyoRacerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10293712044402763377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-70800156175560272.post-71844645736876398012009-01-30T11:27:00.000+09:002009-01-30T11:27:00.000+09:00Hmmmm...thats interesting.

I have custom made insoles (Kanda store) but I have taken the ones which came with the shoes out.<BR/>I may give this a try.<BR/>What about racing flats? I am using these up to 10Km races (not for training at all).

So they add weight. And for long runs, I think you should use heavy, well-cushioned shoes...the more cushioning, the better.TokyoRacerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10293712044402763377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-70800156175560272.post-30519654347810371772009-01-26T21:32:00.000+09:002009-01-26T21:32:00.000+09:00good decision cutting the distance! your weight is...good decision cutting the distance! your weight is getting down pretty fast. but, why are your shoes so heavy?Joachimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04249103275615829778noreply@blogger.com
