Supernova Rise 3

Hey there congrats for the step up from 10k to HM. I just crossed that river an year ago I’ll share my experience of the ones I own! I am 34M 72kg midfoot striker Supernova rise 2 ; are super stable shoes for recovery to slow runs, they like to go slower than your slow runs. They can get into marathon pace but fail as soon as u pick up even a tad bit. Many a times I end up doing easy 21k in them (without intentions to do one), although in the end 3-4K, I always end up wishing if it had just a bit more cushioning, for which I have bought SNR3, & like u , I went a size up than my usual running shoe size in adidas and I am trying to deal with heel slip with runner knot and thick socks. Haven’t run in them yet, keeping them to use later in the year. But SNR3 can be great option for ur HM training No idea with B13, but I have B12: I find them great for uptempo efforts and sometimes intervals. Did my 10k pb in them. I would prefer to race in them instead of training (daily) in them. Quite firm compared to Rise 2, but I like to diversify to stimulate between different foams and drops Superblast 2: stable but has only one gear: Marathon pace, I took them for HM distance today and they felt great until I wanted to end fast and they just don’t like anything beyond threshold paces, it was exhausting to run at max speed with them . Also they are firm , I have heard SB3 is softer but don’t plan on buying them until they go on discount. I wouldn’t suggest Superblast 2 as only one shoe rotation trainer! Novablast: it is a bit (just a bit) unstable of them all , but nowhere as unstable as EVO SL, i love them for all distances and all paces except intervals, for which I use B12/nike peg plus. ________ I would suggest a 2 shoe rotation (trust me u need rotations to have a better experience and more life out of ur shoes) SNR2 (recovery and easy) + B13 (intervals and uptempo). Or Novablast (everything except interval)+ B13 /Adios 9 (intervals) Like it or not, NB5 is a great one shoe rotation trainer to start building up endurance.

IMO supernova is not as versatile as pegs for threshold paces, no doubt it’s the king of easy runs but I have to put efforts to speed them up unlike pegs

I just did ultrabalaton in Hungary, used Adidas supernova rise 3 

Adidas Supernova Rise 3. Yung v1 and 2 medyo low stack, yung v3 mas protective. Easy run shoe ko yan ngayon, alternating with Nike Vomero 18. Most of the other running shoes you listed arent good shoes.

Supernova Rise 3 would be the slow marathoner shoe within Adidas line up with a nice Peba blend foam. Note the outgoing Rise 2 is a lot lower stack, wouldn't use for the FM.

Not sure how I'd go at 88kg. But Supernova Rise has serious levels of ground feel for a daily cushioned trainer.

I picked mine up yesterday and went for a short walk to break them in. They feel fine- nothing special, but I can tell they'll be pretty durable. The toe box was surprisingly wide. My last trainers were Topos, so that was a nice surprise.
