Air Zoom Pegasus 39 FlyEase

I bought these shoes last month and got them on sale for $81. I had a pair of Nike Pegasus Flyease similar to the ones pictured below in green. I ran them pretty good and used them to train for a half marathon. When I bought the Chiefs shoes, I broke them in for a 4 mi and 2 mi run. I ended up using them for my half marathon next and they felt like a cloud on my feet and nice and light. I don't encourage you to use them if it's raining or wet outside. They don't handle very well in my experience and I was worried I was going to slip. I think they are great and they are in my regular rotation for running shoes. \*Edit to add that currently I am not on a training cycle so I am doing casual runs from 2 -5 miles a few times a week. https://preview.redd.it/dwb88ky3yu7g1.png?width=621&format=png&auto=webp&s=1aa07920792358945da9cab21b34194590fa9208

Pegasus 39, bought it for $60 and will last 700+ miles

I’ve run over 1000km on 3 different Pegasus range. I’ve been anywhere from 95-105kg

I am using Pegasus 39 and Dynablast 5. Which one out of these do you recommend for a half marathon distance?

For the last 3500 miles, I have run in only 1 pair of shoes at a time (including races) - 1000 on Pegasus 38s, retired - 1000 on Pegasus 38s, retired - 1000 on Pegasus 39s, retired - 500 on Pegasus 39s (any guesses on when I’ll retire them?) The theory is different shoes put different stress on different parts of your feet and help with injury prevention. Up to you on what ever works best for you, just be mindful, some people have found success having a shoe rotation. Given you’ve already run a marathon, I wouldn’t consider you new to this, and you likely know what works for you.

I tried the Peg 39 and just couldn't force myself to run in such a dead feeling shoe, not sure if the 41 is better? IMO if I want to run shoe that gives me no assistance and forces me to do all the work I would just run in old school flats rather than a dead feeling daily trainer, since those don't get in my way at least.

If you compare Pegasus 41 with today's trending sneakers, they will be considered dull. But I like them a lot. I have two pairs of the pegasus 39, a pair of the pegasus 41 and a pair of the mizuno wave rider 28. Next year I will acquire two pairs of the new wave rider 29 and I will probably alternate my whole life between this line of shoes pegasus - wave rider. They give me everything I need, without freshness, without perfumery. They are cheaper than most and last more than a thousand kilometers. Why more than that? I would never find myself running around in these hyped and often soft sneakers like gelatin, they just don't work well for me. Maximum respect for classic daily coaches, do everything without perfumery and give you the necessary support for any type of training.

I also find the 39 model very aggressive, and I left them to use in faster races, the 41 I made it my model for more normal riding and long distances, alternating with the wave rider 28. As I weigh 66 kg, the pegasus 41 provides adequate cushioning for me. even for more than longer 15+ km runs.

I have two pairs of the pegasus edition 39 and I love them. I paid something around 60 dollars in a big promotion, at that price, they are worth every penny. At first I felt some adjustment pain in the first kilometer... but then my feet got used to it and I never felt anything again. I liked it so much that I bought a pair of Pegasus 41, also on sale for 70 dollars, they feel a little more cushioned, I'm going to use them for long runs too, as I'm light and weigh just over 65kg. Now on Black Friday I bought two pairs of Wave Rider 28 on sale, they cost 60 dollars too each par. I'm also really enjoying it. I like lower sneakers, with regular cushioning, in which I can feel the ground, in addition to being flexible sneakers. I'm very satisfied, Now, I have 5 brand-new pairs (three pegasus and two wave riders) and now I have reliable equipment to run many kilometers for next 2 years at least. They keep me running 30-40 km a week without getting injured, so I don't have to look for other, much more expensive products. In my country, shoes like NB 1080, Novablasts, Neo vistas, Evo SL are expensive and not for daily trainning. I need reliable daily trainers for all terrains, with stability and many important, durability. my wife have 2 pairs of adizero sl2, and its feel too much soft in my experience, I feel my legs heavy, I dont know why, but, its not my best experience. same with nb 1080 v14.

Nike Pegasus 39 have lasted me 600k so far with no issues and only some slight outsole wear. I'm 85kg if that helps
