LONG-DISTANCE PLAN
Some trail shoes make you cringe at the thought of training for anything longer than a 10K. Not the Cascadia. With plush cushioning and easy flex, this shoe is perfect for high-mileage runs on mellow terrain. The combination of a unique trail-stabilizing system—foam wedges at mid- and forefoot that help offset mild trail irregularities—and a reinforced rock shield offers ample off-road protection. Still, a flexy forefoot and soft lugs make a few miles on the sidewalk go by smoothly. One of our testers in Boulder put it best: “They feel fast on all surfaces and they’re not clunky on pavement.” 12.2 oz; brooksrunning.com
