Help me with a long run shoe. I ran 2:26 marathon and am hoping for a long run shoe that would be suitable for runs at that pace, while still offering enough support. I'm not sure most racing shoes are sufficiently saving the legs.
Shoes I've tried that aren't pure daily trainers:
Boston 13 - good but also very stiff, I feel like it beats my legs too much.
EVO SL - great, just not enough support for 30+ km long runs.
Novablast 5 - better than EVO SL in support, but loses all pop after 150km. Disappointing.
I'm curious about Megablast and Prime X Strung, but price tags are nuts and it's not possible to buy them locally to try them on. Any other suggestions? Otherwise I may stick with changing shoes for MP sections.
EDIT: Racing shoes I've used and loved: Adidas Pro 4 and Asics Metaspeed Edge Paris. I also have Mizuno Neo Vista 2 (slow shoe) but I find the feeling of it incredible. I ran in On Cloudboom Echo 3 before, did not like the firmness. TL/DR I prefer a bit softer shoes, but not extremely soft like Asics Metaspeed Sky Tokyo.
I have some Adizero Evo Sl Shoes which are quality. Best ones I've had
Before that I had some on running cloud ones but I think I will stick with Adidas from now on
I’ve been running for the past 3 years, without any real goal or structure. Last year I got more serious about it and was recommended two pairs of running shoes. One of them was Cloud, which I used for a half marathon, and my right ankle was completely wrecked after the race. I also had a pair of Hyperion Max 3 from Brooks that I bought at the same time, but I used those for higher‑pace sessions. In December I got runner’s knee, and I’ve trained my way back to being able to run for 1 hour on a treadmill, but using some Asics shoes (Gel Phoenix) that don’t have as much drop as the Brooks shoes.
Today I went for a run and only noticed towards the end that these Brooks shoes are extremely unstable for me. I’m also on the heavier side at 90 kg, so that might play a role in the assessment. Either way, I’m looking for a stable shoe. As you can see from the clip, I overpronate, and the instability goes first to the ankle, then up to the knee, and then to the hip.
I need recommendations for other shoes I can use without injuring myself. Ideally i want to run a halvmarathon in september. Goal is 1:40. Last year i did 1:45.
Thanks in advance.
I like the Cloud shoes, I had a tibia plateau fracture many years back and they help with the aches.
But running shoes can be so expensive that now I always go into the running stores and ask what they have in clearance and grab that.
