I am feeling the same way about my brooks. but, I am hoping I can get in another 60-80 miles before the half marathon and then switch to a new pair!teacherwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15791382386588836461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25824302.post-76412019841383422412008-04-02T13:43:00.000-04:002008-04-02T13:43:00.000-04:00How many miles are on the shoes?

They don't go "bonk" overnight so you should be able to determine when they need to be replaced before the race.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01465800584212530717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25824302.post-4349991429792146792008-04-02T13:21:00.000-04:002008-04-02T13:21:00.000-04:00I always recommend buying new kicks LMAO!

You don't want to try anything new this close to race day (it is close to race day, right?)... take it from the guy who got new insoles the day of his first half marathon and ended up with blisters the size of Sacajawea Dollars.<BR/><BR/>If you have time, I'd recommend getting at least one long (read: pre-taper) run in the new shoes before the race, just in case.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Zachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05571143319388677768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25824302.post-77036121427739383142008-04-02T12:53:00.000-04:002008-04-02T12:53:00.000-04:00I just bought some new mizunos and LOVE them.
