I am a marathoner, I run in Asics Gel-1150. I have signed up for a couple ultramarathons/trail runs this spring and am thinking of these for the long runs. My problem area seems to be my lateral 5th digit. Is this a good ultramarathon shoe? I was also looking at Brooks Cascadias...any input would be really helpful.

There are a lot of good shoes out there, but I am happy you're going with the Cascadia (sorry we don't sell them!). But you'll love them... you have my word :-)

Thanks guys, I have heard that about the Cascadia from several people now. I'm going to go with those for now, I really appreciate the input.

I have both shoes and have run about 30 ultramarathons... if I have to choose one shoe for the rest of my life, it would be the Brooks Cascadia. It is a bit heavier than some shoes on the market, but it feels like running on a cloud. I've never worn a more comfortable and versatile shoe than the Cascadia.

A good light shoe,that is suprisingly quite durable.
