ACSM releases shoe buying guide...

Yep, in a recent 2014 brochure issued by the American College of Sports Medicine, they conclude that:

"Characteristics of a good, safe running 
shoe include:
• Minimal heel-to-toe drop: ....
Shoes with no drop....are the best....
• Neutral: ....no motion control or stability 
components....
• Light in weight:...."

Better late than never and I'm thrilled to see this guide issued to the masses from a 'more reliable' source than Chris, Ted, or Micah (Caballo)
(or lil' ol' me)

Share away and reap the validation ;)
