4/5
Overall
I ran in the Pegasus for a long time until they changed out the bottoms to match the LunarGlide. I got worried, so I switched. About 100 miles ago, I switched back. I've been pretty happy with them! I'm a toe-striker. They feel more cushiony than I remember in the forefoot, but still nimble and responsive.
