Terrex Two Flow

I ran my first 50 on adidas TERREX flow 2’s. Wouldnt recommend. But have since switched to their agravic Speed (not the ultra) and they really worked for me. Reasonably aggressive but surprisingly supple without being unbalanced. Agravic 3 seem pretty well reviewed around the YouTube parts, but I haven’t tried those yet.

I’ve used Adidas Terrex City-to-Trail sneakers on weekend hikes. They’re breathable, super light, and fine for dirt trails. Mud? Not ideal, but a quick rinse fixes it.

Spikes typically have very little cushion compared to trail running shoes, so it really depends on the trails you plan to run. But unless you’re trying to break some personal record, it’s kinda pointless. I have dragonfly XC spikes that I use for 5k’s but I never do any kind of crazy trails in them. One wrong step on a rock and it’s a sprained ankle. Not a big deal in a 5k with a ton of people around and medical nearby. But out running alone, yea it can potentially be a big problem. XC shoes are also going to wear out a lot faster, especially in the heel. I have 3 pairs of trail shoes I use if I go out alone. One pair of trail runners Adidas Terrex I picked up super cheap that I just use on flat dirt, and two pairs of hiking shoes, Columbia low tops and North Face high tops for rugged terrain that are both 5+ years old. I can honestly run fine in any of them, just not fast of course.

I wear adidas terrex trail runners all year long… they dry out quickly, and are comfortable

Same! I currently use Terrex trail runners for wet roads and I love it. These look like they would be right up my alley.
