I do. I use the Brooks Glycerin, a shoe for neutral runners. I've a high arch and a slight supination. Most of my running history (32 years) I've run in New Balance, a shoe I love. But these last few years I've not found a NB road shoe (my trail shoe is NB) that fit for me like the Brooks Glycerin. My favorite distances are mid distances, 1/2 marathon, 25 K, but I have run marathons.., in Brooks.

    I use Saucony stabilty shoes and love them. I wanted to try Brooks but have been so happy with Saucony that I am afraid to try something else esp. since they are so expensive. I have a very wide ball of the foot (square like) and a narrow heel, so it is hard for me to find shoes in general. Saucony seems to fit perfectly and they are so light. I also have mild overpronation and a medium arch.

    I am currently working on a website on which you can submit your fitness information and I give you a personal Training program. The website is not up and running yet, so I currently am allowing people to email me their information and giving programs out that way. THIS IS FREE.
    This is not a scam. I am not asking for any personal information. You dont even have to give me your real name. If you choose to get a personal training program, please email me (personalfitnesstrainer011@yahoo.com)

    Brooks are known to be good for neutral feet. They are actually good shoes. However, whether a shoe is god or not is depending on the person's feet, not the brand. You have to figure whether your feet turn in, out or not at all when you run. You should go on-line or a near-by professional running shoe store to figure it out.
    I run & I personally like Mizunno.
