Anyway, I think my Saucony Hurricane 10's are not as great of a fit for me as I thought. They're excellent shoes, don't get me wrong, but I think they're giving me shin-splints. I'm not entirely sure, but it's my guess. I'll stick with them a little longer before I go over to Brooks Adrenaline GTS 8's. I tested one on each foot and I think there's a bit more cushioning in the forefoot of the Brooks shoes, and that's where I think the problem is starting and giving me the shin-splints. The guy at the shoe store suggested I try some softer terrain such as trails, so I'll try that before I pick up the Brooks. However, I think I'll still end up getting those shoes because they get awesome reviews and a lot of reviews say they're great shoes for trail running as well, which is something that I'm gonna get a little more into (not because the guy suggested it, but I think I'll like it since it's a way to be really close to nature).
I'll post results of how I feel after running the shoes on the trail.
