I don't know how serious the trails are you'll be running, but 3.0s could be alright. Also check NB Minimus and other flats (Saucony, Brooks, Mizuno, Nike). If the trails are pretty hairy and whatnot, you might consider a trail shoe that could go on roads versus a road shoe that could handle some trails, but running a trail shoe on harder surfaces will wear the grip and traction down real fast. Take it slow for a few weeks. That's the best advice for injury prevention. Real slow, seriously. Especially if you aren't accustomed to training in flats.

the regular mako is great

^ lol no. try V02 fartleks and 15x400s at rep pace w/ full recovery. threshold miles are great for building that speed as are v02 miles to get fast improvement. start with some fartleks though. throw in some 200s at the end of workouts and shorter runs. ya know. if you need more specifics i can ive you exact paces and such for real workouts we do.

I love the streaks but they are quite soft with a lot of ground feel - which I prefer. They are some of the most minimal shoes you can get. You may want to try the Adizero Rocket, they are pretty stiff but with minimal heel to toe drop and provide a firm ride with a flexible upper.

Also, some of you may find this TED talk by Chris McDougall pretty interesting. It highlights most of the major points found in his book, and he is a very engaging speaker.

i run in college now (D3) and a number of guys on the team run in flats and support the minimalist approach to running. it has been pretty big in the running world for a while and now it is pretty much accepted to be the best way to train seriously. some guys just don't want to mess with success, though, if they have had no issues running in heavy trainers for years. i made the transition when i got out of high school and even ran in VFFs for a few months. now i run in flats exclusively for all of my mileage and try to incorporate some barefoot running into each week's schedule but only on soft surface (strides on the infield or grass somewhere), as do most of the distance guys.

as long as you're on your forefeet and not you're heels then you're on the right path

i currently rotate between saucony grid type A4, NB minimus road, brooks t6, and nike streak XC for speed work

interested in adidas flats as well as asics piranhas and hyperspeeds

you have like no arch? is it because you have been wearing heavy orthotics for a long time or are your feet just built with a flat arch?
