Thanks for all the advice
I personally recommend a good mountain bike shoe for multi-day tours like ALC (and for the training that leads up to the event). You will walk a lot. And not only will you destroy road shoes, but you'll find it's easier to walk (ie the recessed cleat will not affect your posture when walking).

Most shoe manufacturers make identical road and mtn shoes -- built on the same last but with different soles.
