Best Running Shoe?

This will be my first 5K and I was wondering what type of shoe would be best for my first race?

As the owner of a specialty running store (Fleet Feet Sports) I highly recommend that you be fit for the best shoe FOR YOU. Everyone's biomechanics are different and at a specialty running store we will watch your gait and determine whether you need a neutral shoe, a mid-stability shoe or a motion control shoe. If you over-pronate, you will want a shoe with some medial stability, but if you're an effecient "neutral" runner, a shoe like the wave rider will be appropriate. Come see us (or another specialty running store)...we'll get you in the right shoe for you! Bob Shooer, Owner Fleet Feet Sports 412-851-9100 ****fleetfeetpittsburgh****

I have been running on the Mizuno Wave Rider 12 for the past 4 months and they are absolutely amazing. They are extremely light but they still offer plenty of cushioning for the 30+ mile road runner. I am a neutral runner. I hope this helps.
