Well  my tri season is wrapping up and  moving into traning  for a Half marathon and its time for a shoe change. I am a neutral foot. SO what running shoes do you recommand to take me the whole distnace  in the most comfotable way. Right now I run in Nike Lunar racers(super light and fast).

Not sure I would tak any shoe advice from an internet site - get yourself down pronto to a good shoe store.

But, to answer your question ... I like the Mizuno Wave Rider Smile

yeah, what he said. Get a pair that fit well and are matched to your gait and footstrike.

Me, I alterate Asics 21XX with the Brooks Adrenaline.

The Asics 2140 and Brooks Adrenaline have been my workhorse shoes for the last year and a half. I like to rotate in a pair of Pearl Izumi XC's when I trail run. They are very light and comfortable. I just replaced my racers (Asics DS trainers) with the much lighter Asics Hyper Gel which weigh in at just under 6 oz. each. I really like these for racing and when I want to do a faster tempo run primarily on pavement. For such a minimal shoe that are extremely comfortable and would not hesitate to run a half marathon in the them. A full might be pushing it unless you are an elite runner.
