Run Wales -  I hear what you are saying, but I had my gait checked out 18 months ago at a reputable running shop during a previous calf/shin issue and even though they could show my right foot was not pronating as much as my left the best shoe option was still the Asics 1100 series.

If they don't fit I can always send them back.  Have been suffering from a calf/shin injury since feb which has been a recurring concern in recent years, iv'e spent a few quid going down the physio route with no definite diagnosis. Awaiting x ray results back to hopefully rule out stress fracture.  I've run in various versions of the 1100 series so was thinking a move to a different shoe may be a option, clutching at straws maybe, but got to try something.

Red - Good news from you, i'm waiting results of x ray which will hopefully be sometime this week.

Thanks all for the advice, RRP for Ravenna's is £100 , can get them for £68 off the net so more than a few quid.

Carrot - Nice mileage, are you following the thread trend of shorter quicker stuff during the summer or aiming for something longer?

Minni - Rubbish news about your calf, can't really give any advice as I've been stuck with my calf/shin issues since Feb, apart from the calf anything feel different in your running action?

FRC - good running.
