ASICS Women's MetaRun Running Shoes - Lightweight Cushioned for Marathon & Training - Perfect for Road Running, Gym Workouts & Daily Wear

I was super hopeful that these would be as great as the reviews I read. I normally wear Asics Gel-Kayanos because I need a stability shoe, and they work great for me, so when I saw these, and saw they too were stability shoes but with all the bells and whistles, I was really excited. My first run was a 12 miler and I experienced aches and pains in my ankles, which I've never had before. I've never had to break in my Kayanos so I thought a long run would be good but thought, okay, I guess I need to break these in. Went out again the next week, another 12 miles and by mile 7 began experiencing knee pain first in my right knee, then my left. If I stopped to walk it would dissipate but if I ran again it hurt. I never experience ANY pain in my Kayanos.So I don't know if these are better for low mileage runs, although they certainly aren't described that way. I am unsure if I even want to run in them again because of the random pains I experienced both runs, but even with the great price here on Amazon, they are still expensive to just sit in the closet. But running in pain is not good so I don't know what I'll do. Overall I am super bummed because I was really hoping they would do as well as the Kayanos but I guess I will be back to wearing those.Update: I ended up wearing these for another three months and the pain lessened but never completely went away. Even after breaking them in they were never truly comfortable so I finally gave up and ordered a new pair of Kayanos. Ran nine miles in them right off the bat, no issues. I'll be sticking with those from now on.
