Marathon workhorse, but loud and clunky at slow paces.

Running these analyses costs money. Buy through my links to help keep lights on! I may get a small commission.
I have a pair of Brooks hyperion 2 that I really enjoy running shorter tempo runs in. Love basically everything about it but i would like some more impact protection, but nothing too soft. Something thats a bit more daily runner friendly, for about 4min/km to 6min/km paces. Been looking into the evo sl, novablast and the superblast 2. Ive got a slightly wider toebox and narrower heel, but im also slightly flatfooted, nothing significant. History of some shinsplints but havent had them in a while now. I do have plantar fascia flareups from time to time. Any recommendations or thoughts on the shoes mentioned? Thanks!!
Brooks seems to have changed their fit slightly and the toebox seems more narrow than before unfortunately
Brooks Hyperion 3 is your ticket
Man this forum really sleeps on Brooks. Between their Hyperion line and the very affordable Launch 11, they are my making the best shows for me these days.
Brooks Hyperion 3 is quite snug
i can only afford 2 pairs lol but i love them Asics Gel Nimbus 27 for the easy/ long/ recovery runs and Brooks Hyperion 3 for the every day trainer and a speed work shoe. Much prefer the hyperion’s all round actually, not a huge fan of a highly cushioned shoe because my ankles feel very unstable
Mach 6-7, brooks hyperion 3, salomon aero blaze 3. Theese work well in the littlebit longer rums,but you csn use them for intervall sessions.
Good option! Highly underrated shoe.
