Word. Of course some manufacturers claims are to be taken with a big pinch of salt but on the whole, anyone who thinks specific shoes for specific activities is just marketing and promotion is somewhat misguided and in for some bad days when they get older!

Amen Z.
Now all of you go out and buy adidas clima cool apparel, adidas techfit powerweb undergarments, and a pair of adidas adizero's. Keep the money rolling through the tills so they can continue to pay my wages

Bollocks . . . I run in a sack-cloth jerkin and clogs . . . Never done me no harm.
I don't wear Crocs, and I don't wear sandals/The pump don't work 'cause the vandals took the handles . . .

Clogs are the exception though G, can't go wrong in a pair of solid wooden runners. Only if they have a windmill and tulips on them though (they have to be stereotypical)

Mmm. I wonder if I could source a pair of these clogs for the half marathon next month? And maybe a burlap tunic?

Lorrie speaks the truth. Proper running shoes are essential. That impact is being absorbed someplace and if it's not in the sole, it's in your body.

@olskool - I think you might be on to something. Of course the best trainers in the world aren't going to help you if you aren't fit or aren't naturally faster than what's chasing you.
And, I have no doubt that the natives of North America were faster than any settlers that invaded. More so that they decided maybe to fight the bastards instead.
