Not sure how it will go this time round because there's a difference in altitude and hills and such. We'll see.
So what kind of shoes is everyone running in? I started out as a neutral runner running in Asics Landreth, then switched to a pair of neutral Saucony's which were terrible on my feet, then finally realized that my stride had changed and I needed a more supportive shoe and went for the Mizuno Wave Inspires which I love (some people hate them b/c they are too roomy in the toe box, I love them for this reason).

I know a lot of people running Pittsburgh. I'm registering for Marine Corps next week and am planning for that to be my first full.
I started in the Asics Cumulus in high school cross country and have probably owned 25 pairs. I switched last year to the Asics Landreth and it has worked out well.
