I also run in the Nike Zoom Streak XC 2 but I prefer the wider forefoot and adizero foam on the Hagio. Both can be picked up for super cheap at runningwarehouse, use the discount code "runblog10" to get an additional 10% off.Ken Besshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17430522156793910847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451222917425507533.post-72496477194218173732012-04-13T12:33:02.028-06:002012-04-13T12:33:02.028-06:00And I understand that you can probably only recomm...And I understand that you can probably only recommend NB and that's fine.Conorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11021719983588740849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451222917425507533.post-61277761078317419122012-04-13T12:31:22.636-06:002012-04-13T12:31:22.636-06:00Thanks for the response.

I absolutely love the way that shoe feels, so much that I'd buy a new pair every 200 road miles if I could only keep wearing it. But that's not realistic money-wise.Conorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11021719983588740849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451222917425507533.post-55356856668419624602012-04-13T11:31:04.257-06:002012-04-13T11:31:04.257-06:00Conor - I think the shoe rides great on the road. ...Conor - I think the shoe rides great on the road. I can't say that it wears very well, though, because we deliberately put a softer, stickier rubber on the outsole than what was on the 101s (which was quite hard and slick). I do a lot of moderate scrambling on my mountain runs and the softer rubber gives me extra traction/security on rock. The trade-off, however, is that it's not quite as durable.Antonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11148317903654491236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451222917425507533.post-21259897307778757542012-04-13T08:12:33.668-06:002012-04-13T08:12:33.668-06:00Tony,

But after only about 75 road miles, the soles seem to be wearing more than I expected. I've read that the 110s are designed so that they'll be suitable for road running, but I want your explicit opinion - do you agree? I've got other shoes I use for roads, but I'd really the 110s to be my every day shoes, roads and trails both. Is that realistic?Conorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11021719983588740849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451222917425507533.post-50344583427676480952012-04-11T15:22:59.092-06:002012-04-11T15:22:59.092-06:00Thanks for the three great clips.
