Asics Piranha for Oly's

Last season I raced in Piranhas during all sprint races and used my Zoots for olympics and HIM. This season the shortest races I plan on doing are olympics. Has anyone ran 6 miles in these? Do you think it would be a good idea to race an olympic in them?

A bunch of guys in the Olympics were using them. I’ve used mine for a 4 mile race and a 5k, but 10k seems hard. That all depends on your body type I guess.

I’d agree that it has a lot to do w/ you as a runner (speed, weight, etc…) & what you’re comfortable w/.

I wore them in the NYC Marathon in the Fall & they felt great, but my feet were pretty beat to sh#t by the end. We kicked this around a little bit a few weeks ago & you may want to give it a read…
