Review: Skechers GoRun Ride 9

Image
I'm very excited to review the Skechers GoRun Ride 9 today. Skechers Singapore has kindly provided me a pair to review at no cost. The opinions in this review are my own. I've been fortunate enough to test the GoRun Ride 7 and 8 in recent years, with  Roadtrailrun . See links here: Skechers GoRun Ride 8 Skechers GoRun Ride 7 The Skechers GoRun Ride 9 actually released in the USA sometime last year, but took a while to finally reach retail outlets in Singapore.  Before we dive into the review of the Ride 9, let's do a quick recap on the evolution of this shoe over the past few years.

Review: Formthotics Custom Orthotics

Now, I will state upfront that I am not someone who uses stability shoes. All my shoes are neutral. Some are more neutral than others, e.g. Adidas Prime X vs Brooks Hyperion Tempo. That said, I have gone through enough gait analysis over the years (3x by different versions of ASICS Foot ID, and 1x by Adidas) that I know I do have some asymmetry in my gait, and that I do have some late stage forefoot pronation especially in the left foot.  Ironically, I have never had any injuries involving the feet before (knock on wood). I struggled with ITB Syndrome 2x before (both presenting with right knee pain), the last
