The Asics Novablast 5 and Mizuno Neo Zen are two of the best training shoes to hit the market recently. Priced at $140, they go head-to-head in the fun daily trainer segment. In this episode, I compare the two and let you know which is more fun, which is more reliable and which is the better buy for most people.
