Overall

The Asics GT-2000 is a great shoe. As a former college runner I keep up a general level of fitness, enough to go for 4-7 mile runs on a regular basis. This shoe is comfortable for long and short runs, but not as durable as I'd expect. Seems like I could get 400-500 miles out of shoes when I was running high mileage, but now I'm barely getting 350. I really like everything else about the shoe - reasonable price, comfortable, looks good.
