I got new running shoes last week. I usually get Nikes but they didn't have those in stock at school so this time I had to get Brooks. Let me first say that many people on my team run in Brooks and love them and have never had an issue with them. I have come to the conclusion, however, that these shoes are not right for me. This might just be me being picky but I don't think a running shoe is supposed to slice into your achilles every time you turn a corner. Oh well, I am sure it will be fine as long as it is just a surface wound and doesn't make its way down to the tendon. But seriously, I could cut my steak with the top back edge of my shoe.
