if you like a decent amount of cushioning as a runner then i'd strongly recommend the higher-end models from the nike react line...epic react 2 or infinity run. changing to these shoes has been a godsend.

i was a lifelong pegasus fan before switching to asics nimbus after i had a back surgery and needed better cushioning. eventually even the nimbus became insufficient for runs of more than a mile or two...basically warm-ups...because my back injury/sciatica pain would return. since switching to the epic react, then react 2, and now infinity run i've been running 3-5 miles at a time up to 3 times per week and have no recurrence of injury...going on nearly 5 years. great cushioning but still decent responsiveness. probably not a great shoe if you're an advanced / under 6 min runner...but great for me at 185 lbs running an 8-ish pace.
