Being a forty two year old male and suffering with an old left knee injury and an arthritic bunion on the top of my left big to lets just say I have not been able to fully enjoy the exercise I enjoy most.A few months ago I consulted a foot doctor who said he could perform surgery on my toe and remove the bunion with about six weeks recovery time or I could stop running. He said I could also try a stability shoe to cushion and support my sore toe.
I have tried stability shoes in the past and being a neutral runner they felt as if I had bricks tied to my feet. I have tried saucony, brooks and asics stability models and all with the exception of the asics were clunky.
I ordered these Lunarglide +3's last week and received them at a great price with fast shipping as usual. Popped the senor out of my old Lunarmax's and into my new Glides and was ready to go.
Out of the box I did my three mile run on pavement and from the first steps noticed something different, cushioning combined with a very light stable running shoe. Also they fit like a glove and secure nicely around your mid foot.
The ride of these shoes is fast and stable with lots of cushion but not to the point where it feels artificial or weird.
Suffice to say during and after my run I had no toe or knee pain which I had suffered through so long.
I highly recommend these running shoes to anyone with similar old injuries or anyone who wants to save their joints from unnecessary pounding.
If the first three miles in these are a sign of what's to come I will be hoarding these shoes before long.
Great job Nike, keep it up.
