Need to get a pair in the next few weeks, to break them in before PL (the HM there is 90% off-road).
Currently looking at Innov-8s TrailRoc 255 - I've been using their road shoes (Road-X 255) for the last few months and they've been a revelation.
What are you using? Any other shoes I should be looking at?
The HM course is undulating, mainly on forest paths, also apparently includes some sand-like places where grip is at a premium.
