Colin Swift, a trail runner and shoe reviewer, shares his running journey and love for trail running. He discusses his transition from team sports to running and how podcasts and books inspired him to start running. Colin also talks about his recent documentary on the Fundy Footpath FKT and his passion for ultra running. The conversation then shifts to sneakers, with Colin providing recommendations for different categories, such as first-time trail runners, door-to-trail shoes, and more. In this conversation, Colin Swift discusses different types of trail running shoes based on specific needs and preferences. He recommends the Nike Pegasus Trail and Solomon Max Glide for beginners, the Hoka Speedgoat and Solomon Ultra Glide as daily trainers, and the North Face Vectiv Pro and Adidas Terrex Speed Ultra as high-end race shoes. For those on a budget, he suggests looking for last year's models or considering the Solomon Ultra Flow and Brooks Divide. Colin also emphasizes the importance of finding the right fit and considering factors like cushioning, stack height, and drop.
