Hey all, I’m looking to add a dedicated long-run / marathon-training shoe to complement my ASICS Novablast 5. I originally planned on the Superblast 2 or Mizuno Neo Vista 2, but neither is available in my country right now. That leaves me choosing between: Adidas Boston 13 Adidas EVO SL I’ve tried both in-store and Boston 13 fits my foot better. My hesitation is that I don’t see Boston 13 recommended very often as a long-run shoe, especially compared to more max-cushioned options. Runner context: Recent long run: 32 km in Novablast 5 (~3:20) Weekly mileage: 35–40 km (sometimes more) Intended use: long runs (25–32 km) + marathon training Novablast 5 will remain my daily/easy run shoe Questions for those who’ve used them: Has anyone taken the Boston 13 to 30 km+? How does it hold up in terms of comfort, leg fatigue, and stability late in the run? Would the EVO SL be the better long-run option? Appreciate any first-hand experiences, especially from runners doing marathon mileage.
I have used Supernova 2 (the older version) a long time, and they are absolutely fabulous. Actually, I have been using it with Novablast, but they are torn out now, and I have to replace them, and that's why I was thinking of evo sl or Boston 13.
At that price point, something like the Supernova is going to be more exciting and versatile with a better fit, too.
Update: I bought the Supernova and it's good shoes. I've been using it for gym and indoor running and it's a great buy for me.
I usually run 5k every 3 days. Hands down best shoes I’ve ever bought. I had the supernovas before and some clouds. For the price, I got them for $100, best shoes I’ve ever used hands down.
supernova - best for cushioning. pero baka mas ok kung yung Solution na version kung need mo din ng stability duramo - marami nagsabi di ok boston - may carbon, baka not yet time to have it kasi starting ka pa lang
