If you're in the market for a minimalist running shoe, you may want to check out the new Adizero Rush running shoe from Adidas ($100). Each shoe clocks in at only 6.2 ounces but doesn't skimp on support. I recently tested a pair during my three-to-four-mile runs; here's what I thought of the line. I'm a sucker for a minimalist shoe, but even I was surprised at just how lightweight the Adizero Read more

Sneakers with articulated toes have been all the rage since barefoot running came onto the scene. It wasn't until Fila sent me a pair of Skele-Toes Voltage sneakers ($75) that I finally tried them out for myself. Like most minimalist running shoes, they're extremely lightweight (6 oz.), but unlike shoes designed with barefoot running in mind, these have a thick, hard sole. Intriguing design, Read more

I've been a fan of Mizuno's running shoes since my first pair of Alchemy shoes, so I was excited when I heard I'd be able to test out the newest offering from the company, the Mizuno Wave Prophecy ($200). The Wave Prophecy is the result of over seven years of research to improve the company's signature Wave technology. This model debuts the full-length Infinity Wave Plate, which runs along the Read more

I may have tried barefoot running, but I am not ready to abandon my sneakers all together. What I am ready for is a lighter, more flexible shoe. Enter the Free XT Quick Fit ($85). Nike just sent me a pair to test out. These sneakers are one of Oprah's favorite healthy things. And the Quick Fits are fast becoming one of my favorite things too! One reason I am digging these sneakers is they make me Read more

Since I started climbing, I've been loyal to La Sportiva shoes, that is, until a climbing friend gifted me with a pair of Evolv Elektras ($89). After wearing them for about three months, I was so impressed with how the Elektras performed and fit that I gave my BFF — who is a beginning climber — a pair. Just like in running, there are a huge variety of rock climbing shoes that are designed Read more

When it comes to working out, I like to be outside. For outdoor runs I wear my Lunar Glides, and when I'm trekking in the mountains I stick to my Nike Wildedge approach shoes. Unfortunately, getting an outdoor workout isn't always in the cards, in which case, I hit the gym near my office. Since I don't like lugging around a lot of stuff and I'm pretty non-committal about what piece of gym Read more

The more active you are throughout your workday, the better. When folks wear comfy shoes to work, they walk more; let's face it, speed-walking for 30 minutes at lunch in stilettos is not a good time. That's why I'm on the hunt for stylish, yet comfortable shoes that promote getting up and moving around. With its low heel made of resilient rubber, I'm liking the Bern High Boot by Keen ($150).
