But ran a full marathon in them two weeks after running my fist 50k trail marathon. Perfect. I doubt I will even use any of my other running shoes now! And I have a lot of other shoes.

There are many variations but my race day socks are either the Max Pro or Max Pro Trail (Maximum Protection).

HOK...Just wanted to endorse your comments too Will. HOKA Sponsor me here in Aus, and I just love these shoes. Pain free running, and most importantly they make running trails even more fun. I just love smashing the downhills :) I've not had any blister issues with mine or black toenails, which may be the shoes or perhaps the socks. The HOKA-Drymax trail combo works for me, having done a harsh 100km trail 2 weeks ago with no gear changes for the first time ever in an ultra. <br /><br />Another benefit of the HOKA is that people talk about your shoes rather than commenting on the unpleasant aroma associated with running for 12 hours!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05712344829615128675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318674573303332537.post-1458717828795267272011-05-31T12:08:51.382-07:002011-05-31T12:08:51.382-07:00and they look hip too... =:-) glad to hear that ...and they look hip too... =:-) glad to hear that you are running pain freeit's all about pacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01050255876900385166noreply@blogger.com
