I have never gotten 400 miles out of a shoe. I'm 190lb runner and have gotten as low as around 200 miles and looking back through my Garmin retired shoes managed 370 once. At any rate, shout out to these Brooks Ghost 13's :)

Normally something (knees) let me know it's time to switch. These I retired due to running out of sole! At any rate, 95 activities, and 444 miles is a record for me!

Wow that's something! I have Asics Gel Kayano with more than 700 km - not sure I should get new ones, but my knees are fine and I don't feel any discomfort when running. I'm approx 75 kg.

Ya, I wasn't having any real issues, just busting through the sole a bit on my heels. Just figured it was time to swap to the next set.
