Hi

I have been a fan of Nike free 5's for the last few years and have ran 2 marathons and loads of half without any problems. I recently bought two new pairs as the shop had them for full and then half price for a second pair, so i said thats a good deal, buy two and they will do me for the next while.
I put one away and used one, started off with a few short runs and then had a long run with them(20 miles) and got a blister on one of my foots, but i put this down to the socks rather than the shoe. then did a slow 4 miles and the following day ran a 10 mile run and then woke up with a sore foot which turned out to planter fascistis.
I am nearly back now, but my physio said to use my old pair until the end of the marathon(thats if i get their.)
But i am thinking of bringing the other pair back. i liked the original pair, but the new is slightly different and just maybe added to my injury!
Anyone use these new model of nike Free 5 and what do you think of them, I use nike free 4's for races up to half marathons! and nike free 5's for longer.

thanks
