Yes – zero drop. Instinct looks great, sounds like they may have some nice
follow ups on the boards already.

I will be at the Running Clinic course in WV at the end of January – looking
forward to it!

They are still moving forward (I’m still in touch on and off) – not sure
what’s up with the website.

It must come from a small company. Large footwear companies simply won’t do this. Looks like they got the natural width of the foot right. A++

Staffan,

I have worn the Fasttwitch 2, and it was my first lightweight trainer.
Decent shoe, but has a fairly high heel for my current tastes. It did carry
me to my current PR’s at both the 5K and half-marathon. Don’t know much
about the Adios, but it does make an appearance in my newest post:

It’s crappy fit they offer for my feet. The Altra Adam looks interesting, though. I’d love to give a pair of those a go.

Any word on when the Altra running shoes are coming out? There website has been down for a while now. Seems kind of weird for a company who’s getting ready to launch a product.
Thanks.
