It's been way too long. I think the last time I saw you was at Cheat Mtn in '09 (?). Congrats on the new edition -- we've got one of our own on the way this August.<br /><br />I am definitely the bargain shopper. You knock 20% off an inflated price and I just can't say no!Cassedayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06903493546022429763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3681117549787428514.post-6814466188326378282012-04-27T12:59:59.537-04:002012-04-27T12:59:59.537-04:00Kim- the Bajadas are "decent" on rocks. ...Kim- the Bajadas are "decent" on rocks. They're no Vitesse. They're a little dainty for me for MMT's rocks. RE: Mizunos -- Mongold and the WonderBoy both like them too. Pretty good shoe, but pricey. Luckily, I found a couple pair for $65; opposed to the $130 sticker price.Cassedayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06903493546022429763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3681117549787428514.post-67273389791574437282012-04-27T12:57:17.409-04:002012-04-27T12:57:17.409-04:00Chris- I think you'd like the Bajada.

I think we have the internet to blame for supporting our addiction...who can pass up buying a 75% off pair of some random Puma trail shoe no one has ever heard of? Certainly not me!<br />Looking forward to seeing out at MMT in a couple weeks. I'll be pacing Nick P, so with any luck we'll all share a few miles together out there!Dan Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17148231660865011554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3681117549787428514.post-2403123156868030232012-04-27T06:42:31.755-04:002012-04-27T06:42:31.755-04:00I'll be running MMT in the Bajadas.

I spoke to a Montrail rep at a local race and at least they are well aware of it. I will also have to do some sewing on my shoe tongues before the race to anchor it. I haven't noticed the draining issue.<br />I may look into the Mizuno that you mention and test it on some rocks at Laurel Highlands (too close to MMT now) and see how that goes.<br />See you in two weeks!!!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00310860709666039413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3681117549787428514.post-42046689155171986282012-04-27T06:33:06.987-04:002012-04-27T06:33:06.987-04:00Hey Adam, nice review of the 4 shoes.

The last Montrail shoe I tried was the Masochist. I liked it but I had to tie them VERY tight, because my mid-foot tended to slide around. This ended up causing problems on the bottom of my foot. Hope your training is going well. Psyched to follow all of you MMT-Rocker's in 2 weeks!Chris Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04680180800838176856noreply@blogger.com
