The Saucony ProGrid Guide 3 is the 2010 version of Saucony’s award-winning light stability shoe, the Guide. The Guide 3 is not much of a change from its predecessor the Guide 2. The shape of the overlays changed a little bit and the collar lining changed too. Saucony also made this version slightly heavier than the previous. Despite the subtle changes, the shoe feels the same and is a great choice for someone looking for a solid training shoe with good cushioning and some stability. The shape of the guide is similar to that of the Asics GT-2150. It has a very contoured fit with a wide toe box and snug midfoot.

I like to recommend this shoe to people who are new to running and need stability in a shoe. The reason being, the shoe offers a lot of protection in the form of a thick, plush sole. The sole is also flared out in the toe box a bit, giving the shoe a LITTLE bit more lateral stability than competing shoes without it. The shoe also works well as a training shoe for more experienced runners. In fact the Saucony Grid Fastwitch compliments the Guide nicely for the training/racing combination.

You can expect to get between 350 and 500 miles out of this shoe. The range is big and depends on weight and frequency of use. For your average runner it works out to about 6 months.
