Former GT2000 owner, I'd rather die than put significant mileage on a GT series shoe - they're like bricks. If you have some mild stability needs, consider the new Saucony Hurricane 26 with Incredirun for the most performant, stability trainer. If you just need a normal shoe with a little bit more stability, Doctors of Running likes the Hoka Rocket X3, Asics Superblast 2 (not the 3, those got too squishy), Saucony Endorphin Pro 4, and Saucony Endorphin Azura.

If the video is correct (which some ppl pointed out it's not), you actually seem to supinate on landing then overcompensate and overpronate. Yes, arch height is a part of it but weak ankles and arches are also a part of this for beginner runners. Asics stability shoes aren't realllllly stability shoes - they're more like guidance shoes that use some different shapes in the foam to guide your feet. I usually run in neutral shoes but also own some 'guidance' shoes like Kayanos and Hurricanes for long runs where my form is not so good.

Maybe it’s just me, but I wouldn’t overthink it for your first marathon and with that speed. I ran my first in Saucony Hurricanes, they seem to be the only shoe that I can run over 2 hours in without blisters or pain somewhere.

Saucony hurricanes. Changed my running career.

Original version of the Saucony Tempus, still available on Amazon, is much more of a performance shoe than the Guide (daily trainer) or Hurricane (long-run cruiser). A bit firm, doesn't have plush step-in feel, but deceptively quick and versatile for varying paces. Also in this category is the recently discontinued but still available Brooks Hyperion 2 gts. Very light, runs a little long, not the roomiest midfoot. Only the gts for stability.....the regular Hyperion 2 is neutral.

I found hurricanes not the best for OPs achilies issues due to the 6mm drop

Tried it on and didn't like the feel of the foam, kinda lifeless. Ended up leaving the store with the hurricane as my everyday shoe, same nice stability elements but the foam has more pop.

I personally find the SB2 to be a brick.(have 200km+ on them, they do not soften up for me) As a heavier runner, I do my long runs in Megablast(if i want some speed within the session) or Vomero Plus/Adidas PXS2, or Puma Magmax for the reliability(it's an absolute tank). I find the Saucony Hurricane to be a little bulky and boring, and have since turned them into walking shoes. EVO SL works if you don't have stability issues; I've taken them up to Half Marathon+ and they held up nicely
