I've never been able to get any of my running shoes to last even 2,000 miles...not Nike, not Adidas, not ASICS, nor any of the lesser known brand shoes that I've tried. When I run trails instead of paved surfaces, they barely even last 1,000 miles before the sole gets too thin. Anyway, 3K miles on a bike is nothing. Of course if you just want an excuse to get a new bike, then go for it...
