These shoes are awesome and to think that I got it for a steal at a local FinishLine shoe store with a 20% military discount. I wore out my GTS 7's so I went with what worked for me previously. These shoes are extreemly easy on the feet and all impact is absorbed giving very little if any pressure to your foot. The shoes are a little on the heavy side but I am sure that is the trade off for the comfort. I run atleast 5 1/2 miles every other day and I dont ever walk away with any stresses when I complete my runs. The shoe offers great stability and keeps your feet from rolling over like Nike shoes.

I have been running in various models of the Adrenaline for years now. They are a staple amongst all the runners I coach. Their performance level as a consistent, solid training shoe is undeniable. For a stabilizing "trainer" their sole has a great deal of flexibility. I suffer from plantar fascitis and having a flexible sole is extremely important. The double EE width is also a big plus (it means I don't have to doctor my shoes to accommodate some pesky bunions). A great shoe for runners of all ages.

Excellent running shoe along with fast and reliable service through Amazon. They tend to be a little stiff the first day you use them, but they comform great as they get broken in. Ventilation is second to none! A true bang for the buck when purchased through Amazon (about a 30% saving)

I've been running for several years now. I've tried reebok, adidas, nike, mizuno, asics... al the big brands. Once i had this bad pain in my ankle after a 10K race. I even had to visit a doctor. He told me that my injurie was caused because an excessive pronation control of my in-that-time-current running shoes. He recomended to search for a Brooks dealer. First I was sceptical about it, but i gave it a try... the results are just amazing... I thought running was a hard sport... with this shoe it's simply easy... No more pain. no more extenuated legs. After a year using these shoes (three pairs already) I'm ready for a half marathon... Maybe next time i'll see you in NY...

I bought the GTS 8 after trying all the competing models in the moderate stability category. They hold my heels much better than the other options. I've since bought a second pair and ran two half-marathons, a 20 km and a marathon with them. Great shoe. Comfortable, durable and the stability features really do seem to work. My knees no longer ache, even after long runs (20+ kms).
