As spring marathons approach and temperatures rise, you may be ramping up your mileage like many other runners. But that doesn’t mean you have to suffer through long runs in worn-out running shoes. February is a great time to finally make an upgrade before the spring season thanks to end-of-winter sales on last year’s models.
Today and tomorrow only, you can snag two of our favorite Asics running shoes as part of Zappos’s Winter Event. The GT-2000 7 and Gel-Nimbus 21 are already discounted, and you can get an extra 20 percent off if you use the code WINTEREVENT at checkout.
Though Asics has released the 8th iteration of the GT-2000 last year, the previous GT-2000 7 is a worthy contender to help you hit your training goals this year. If you prefer road trainers with stiffness for a more responsive ride and ample stability, whether you’re an overpronator or neutral runner, the GT-2000 might be a good pick for you. The mesh upper may not be the most breathable, but it’ll keep your feet warm when you wear them on cool morning runs even if spring doesn’t come early this year.

Originally $120 and $150 respectively, the GT-2000 and Gel-Nimbus 21 are already discounted on Zappos at varying prices according to color and size options, but don’t forget to add the code at checkout to score an extra 20 percent off the lower price.
