Mizuno Ascend & Cabrakan shoes

[ZootHornRollo]

I'm a "Harrier man" too, and I've got a pair of Ascends that I really like as well
they are a lot like a road shoe though, with a thick "blocky" sole, so no good for anything too technical, and the grip's no good for anything too muddy
I use them for more traily runs, especially if there's going to be a significant amount of actual road involved along the way

I would second that re. Ascends: superb for hardpack trail / gravelly bridlepath / forest trail etc with road sections, esp. if you have long distance to cover, but too much cushioning for rougher trails and steeper terrain, when I'd put on my Kanadias.

V comfortable, great shoe to take away on holiday for instance as an all-rounder.
