Do you spend a lot of time running on trails? 🏔️ Do you think you need trail running shoes?
It would be nice to MENTION THE NAME OF THE SHOE YOU NEED TO HAVE IN DIFFERENT TERRAINS…
If you dont run like being in a competition (like most people are trying to do) then a pair of typical road running shoes will do.
Excellent summary. I have a pair of Speedgoat 5s as my one trail shoe to rule them all and just got some Merrell Long Sky 2 Matryx which I tested on some technical stuff and they passed with flying colours.
Through the summer I find it’s a case of terrain but winter big lugs is a must due me
