Overall

I've been buying the Asics 2100/2000 series for about 12 years). At this point, I'm actually a little afraid to switch. I generally try to buy the same version, so buying on amazon (or another online store) is great because I can find Asics 2000 2 for a much cheaper price than the current model.

Ita a good shoe that lasts for about 500 to 700 miles before it needs to be replaced. The mesh at the toe wears out easily and my big toe always creates a hole after about 250 miles of running
