(I kept finding 13s online at outlet stores but that ran it's course). I find that the Ghosts are great but definitely don't feel as cushiony as my Cumulus. They had me try the Adrenaline and Glycerines too but they hurt my feet. Good luck in the Ghosts.

I read about your shoe issue and I remembered a local news story about a man who invented a running shoe called Altra that is supposed to be really good.

If you notice any issues with your ankles or knees in the Ghosts, you could try an insert like Superfeet in Berry. That should give your ankles some support.<br /><br />A similar shoe to the Adrenaline is the Saucony Allison @ With Faith and Gracehttp://www.withfaithandgrace.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-87340166676082925342014-03-15T20:41:33.322-04:002014-03-15T20:41:33.322-04:00I am currently running in the Brooks Ghost 5 and I...I am currently running in the Brooks Ghost 5 and I love them.
