Just bought some new Mizuno Wave Riders for running. I don't particularly like the way they look but years ago I went to one of those "up and running" shops and they watched me run on a treadmill and advised Mizunos for me based on my wonky gait. They were great and comfy so i've always stuck with them. If they are good enough for Murakami they are good enough for my occasional tentative plods.
Hokas seem to be massively popular. I used to go to a circuit training class last year with a local triathlon club and I was the only person not in Hokas.
