Saucony continues its Powergrid line of impressive and minimalist shoes based on the very popular Kinvara model. The hallmark of this series is a minimalist heel-toe drop of 4mm, Powergrid and Powerfoam in the midsole for cushioning, and lightweight breathable uppers that hug the foot.

In fact, I’m a late stage pronator on my left foot which has given me problems in the past.

There are many positives to these shoes, and I know I’m not the only one gushing about them. If you lived in a place with miles of grassy fields that would be ideal, but my city’s unpredictable scape (trash, gravel, and possible glass) leaves running barefoot running hazardous. Vibrams are the closest I can come to this newfound joy

As the fall marathon season approaches many runners are looking for a lightweight, well cushioned, and moderately supportive shoe for faster paced training runs races. Many racing flats are simply too minimal for most of us to race in for a full marathon distance, while many “lightweight trainers” are often closer to 10 oz and don’t provide the zip and feel of a racing flat.
