Hey i am wanting t get some of the Newton running shoes cause I feel that I would run well on these types of shoes for Cross Country, but needing some input for the brand of Newton shoes to start out on. So if you can help me that would be great, thanks!

I highly recommend buying Nike spikes or a pair of light weight $100 flats for your XC races. You better try them on before you buy or buy through a company with a good return policy (RoadrunnerSports.com) becuase when I tried them on I also tried on the ASICS Gel Speedstar and that shoe fit me just as well and it was only about $80, as opposed to the starting price of $160.
Your body/ money: your choice.

What are some everyday running shoes for forefoot strikers?
Q. I'm looking to replace my old running shoes Asics Gel 1130.
These shoes had a fairly large heel which forced me to heel-strike thus slowing me down significantly.

Answer
While most runners land on their heels, a small percentage of biomechanically blessed runners land on the middle of their feetâand their ranks are growing through alternative training methods such as Chi Running and the Pose Method. Two new shoes, the New Balance 800 and the Newton Gravity, were designed to address the needs of these runners, and to help others train themselves to land farther forward. While not for everyone, forwardâlanding (or midfootâstriking) spreads the force of impact across the heel and forefoot simultaneously, similar to how a bare foot works naturally. This can help strengthen the lower legs, leading to increased stamina and fewer injuries. We put both shoes on nine runners and tested them at the RW Shoe Lab. Both models feature lower heels to help the forefoot make contact with the ground before or at the same time as the back of the foot, but that's where their similarity ends.
The Gravity made our testers think about their running form, whether they wanted to or not. Its forefoot absorbs impact with a rubber membrane that compresses as the tallerâthanâusual outsole lugs come into contact with the ground. The resulting cushioning is similar to other lightweight training shoes. Unfortunately, this design also makes the Gravity a bit rigid, because the shoe's midsole doesn't bend effectively with the foot as it flexes through toeâoff. Our testers found the shoe's forefoot awkward, but some liked how this sensation got them up on their toes.
The 800 offers a softer heel and firmer forefoot cushioning than the Gravity. The shoe features a soft foam bridge along the outside of the midfoot designed to aid cushioning and ease the foot's transition through the gait cycle. While this design improves the shoe's overall stability, we found that the insert doesn't extend back into the heel far enough to fully absorb impact forces. Some testers noted how this resulted in an odd ride.
