I was just waiting for that to happen.

anyway, those are pretty comfortable if you are neutral and efficient, obviously it would be more helpful if you could provide more info, training history, type of terrain etc etc

easy pace

you're better off reading the runners world and running times shoe review sections - too many variables here for boards.

Once I pitied a woman who had no shoes. But then I met a woman with no credit card.

ok well in the winter i have to run on roads (Im always worried about them injuring me lol) because our path which is like crushed limestone i think or you could call it gravel (I normally run on this). I run about 40-50 miles a week and I do a lot of harder workouts which is why I want to make sure my workout shoes wont injure me

wow I read your comment and thought you were actually trying to help me. seriously if you come on these message boards just to mess with people get a life.

wow, you suck too. get a life

Top stability shoes:

Brooks Adrenaline 13/14, Asics GT-2000, Saucony Guide 5/6

Good lightweight stability options:

Brooks Racer ST, Asics Gel DS, Mizuno Wave Sayanara or Wave Musha

I say go with the Ravennas or whatever.

The New Balance 890V3 is a neutral shoe and if you can run in a neutral daily trainer you might consider the Nike Pegasus 30 for your daily runs and the Nike Zoom Elite for racing and faster workouts.

You won't be doing yourself any favors by having 2 drastically different shoes. If you are injury prone, figure out why and work on it. Both your long runs and shorter runs can be done in the same shoe if it is correct for you. Where does your foot strike?

Ravennas are great. Moderate stability. They are not really any lighter than most other stability shoes, but they don't feel clunky and heavy.

Go to a running specialty store and get some advise. You can have a sales person look at your running gait and then they can recommend shoes for you. They should have heavier and lighter options based on your needs.

Coming to the internet isn't the best place to look for shoe advise. Not all running shoes were created equal. Each shoe works better for some and not at all for others. To the extent of getting injured when you buy a shoe with too much or too little support.

A lot of running shops have discounts for student athletes as well.

If you absolutely must get advise from here, you would probably be ok in:

Brooks Adrenaline or Ravenna

Asics 2000

Saucony Guide

Mizuno Inspire

As for workout day and race day shoes, you would probably be ok with:

Brooks Racer ST

Asics DS Racer or DS Trainer

Saucony Fasttwitch

The shoes I recommended here are in the same "category" but are all still different in how much arch support and where the support is targeted at.

Basically what I'm saying is.... go get your gait analyzed and try multiple pairs.
