Try the DS Trainers from Asics. You can find them pretty much anywhere that running shoes are sold. They are the best lightway trainers you will ever find. They might not be the lightest out there but if you find anything lighter you risk injury. Hope this helps.

Answer 3

9.5 ounces is boarder line for a trainer/racer, you'd be OK to train in them but I wouldn't make them your main training shoe.  Just maybe 2 runs a week "tempo or near race pace", they are light enough you could race in as well.  Other suggested Asics DS Trainer 13, they are usually around 9.8 to 10.8 ounces and a great shoe as well.

Answer 4

Yeah, I will recommend Asics DS trainer. The best balance between light weight, cushion and support.
