I really like the glideride max for recovery days and general easy days. But I did feel like they died around 300mi/480km. The ff blast max on the top layer (also used in the novablast 5) just doesn’t hold up and dies before the rest of the shoe does. I did recently buy a second pair though. But only because they’re on sale now that v2 is coming out around December 1st. It’s just an upper update though so there’s no need for me to upgrade
I love my Glideride Max. Just bought another pair. They’re on sale because v2 is releasing soon but from the pics I’ve seen it looks like just an upper update. I heard it’s supposed to be more like the SB2 upper
Yo use los glideride Max 2 de asics, tarde 4 horas y los recomiendo mucho, el modelo 1, si lo encuentras rebajado también lo recomiendo, son muy cómodos para esos tiempos y distancias

They got a plate inside to give them stability despite being a max cushion shoe, so it’s a pretty unique setup. V2 just got released, so the V1 is widely on sale.
The ASICS Glideride Max 1 works well as a long run shoe. It actually has some pep to it as well, so you could through in some long run workouts too. It is on sale now for under $150. The Saucony Endorphin Trainer is another option that is on sale
. It has a top layer of Saucony’s race foam and it feels great for long distances; I feel like they help me push through those last miles
The Glideride max is my go to shoe for long runs and progressive runs. It’s a max cushioned shoe that I can pick up the pace a bit, if needed. The Nimbus is a good max cushioned shoe but it is heavy and hot.
I run in all of these except the Li Ning shoe (am waiting on the Feidian Challenger 5 as we speak) You can probably get a good deal on the Glideride Max and it’s a great option for long runs, to me.
The 1080 doesn’t have any energy give back so it makes it feel them feel heavier on tired legs. I use the New Balance Balos, the ASICS Glideride Max 1/2, the Brooks Glycerin Max 1 for some of my recovery runs and I’m close to your size.

Marathon workhorse, but loud and clunky at slow paces.
