Dear ASICS Gel Cumulus,
Thank you for 800 miles together. You really were a great pair of shoes! In 2017 you ran multiple races with me, including 3 marathons (Xenia, Flying Pig, & Grand Lake) and 3 Half Marathons (Brokeman’s SW Half, 1/2 Way to Xmas, & Happy Half).
You were with me at my second Ultra Marathon, the Tie Die 50k, when I finally realized how desperately I needed trail shoes. You trekked through the mud with me as I barely finished that race.
At the Brokeman’s Southwest, you ran with me the first time I broke 2 hours in the Half Marathon.
You were also there at the Warrior Eat N Run, when I won my first 5k race.
You traveled to North Carolina with me and ran 19, hot, humid miles along the ocean, including the OBX Freedom 5k.
You finished a total of 11 races, and multiple people commented on how nice you looked, in the blue ribbon limited edition.
You were extremely comfortable and well made. I only wish I hadn’t busted holes through your mesh top. As your name implies, you are well cushioned, almost like running on a cloud.
Thanks again! I hope I can find another pair of ASICS just like you. I would definitely buy another pair of Cumulus.
