Speed shoe of the year -
K-Swiss Ultra Natural are awesome for speed work, 5 and 10K runs. One of the first things I do when I receive new
running shoes is put them on and stand in a bucket of water, then walk around with them so they can conform to my feet. With the KSUNs I really didn't have to do it. I have worn them on Triathlons and they were great. The transition into them from the bike was amazing.
Caution, they are not made for trails or anything else other than the road. They do not offer the stability and support need for off the road type work. This is my second pair and I am very pleased with their performance. Ensure that you loosen up the laces completely, this will offer you a more snug fit.
Zappos,
First off, thank you for your expedite service and awesome customer support. The fact that you continue to get shoes to my location almost anywhere in the world in an expedited manner speaks volumes about your company and why I will remain a loyal customer.
I have been a serious runner for over a decade and no other service comes close to how you take care of Soldiers on the front line.
Running is everything to me, the only thing I have in this world and I fiercely treasure it. I run because it helps me get through the stress of combat, I run to celebrate, I run to remember, and I run to continue to build mental fortitude that has kept me alive through multiple tours.
RLTW!
