I have been wearing the Saucony Ride running shoes for years now. These days I'm not such a big runner (two kids, other priorities, no time), so I can't really comment on how well these hold up to mileage for marathon or other long-distance training. On runs around the neighborhood and the running trails, these are great. I have probably used them about a dozen times and I have no complaints. They are comfortable and light! The color is a bit bright but most running shoes these days seem to be like that. I can live with it.
