I bought this shoes last 22 November 2007 at the Glorietta’s “Athlete’s Foot” Store with 20% discount. This shoes was voted by as the Runner’s World Magazine Editor’s Choice and considered as the “lightest performance training” shoe of New Balance. It weighs 10 ounces and it has laces called “Sure Lace” shoestrings.
The shoes is nice and light and I’ve been using it in Jamindan and Iloilo City Oval Track for my “speed play” runs but for the past months, the shoes had been giving me some pain on my right Achilles tendon. Since last month, I started using my ASICS Gel-Cumulus shoes regularly in my road races and training workout runs. The pain on my right Achilles tendon disappeared while using the ASICS shoes. However, to validate and prove that my NB 902 is the cause of the pain, I used it last week for a short run and the pain on my foot came back and I had to slowly stop my running workout.
For now, I am officially “dumping” my NB 902 as my “performance training” running shoes!
