Got the Mizuno Horizon 6 today. I'm new to running and i'm a heavy overpronator, so it is for me not easy to find a fast shoe with the weight. I got a PR on my 10 k distance, without pushing myself: this shoe seems very promising! ^^
I got knee pain two week ago. Generally I rotate between 3-4 pairs of shoes with different stacks and drops. But had a pair of Nike Pegasus 37 that was near the end of it's life and I decided to only run in it so I can throw it away faster (and free up closet space). I had minor pains in my feet from them before (even when they were new), but I didn't think anything about it. When I only ran in them on top of the feet pain, a pain in the knee appeared. I threw them in the garbage and the knee pain went away. BTW Pegasus 37 is the softest, highest stack shoes I've own. I can't tell it's from the foam or not, but I don't get knee pain from other shoes. Hope this is of help to someone.
Very interesting info and conversation on knee pain. Funny how you mentioned newer runners. I’ve only been running consistently for 4 yrs and I remember getting what someone termed as runners knee in the first 6 months. Truthfully like most runners, I was going too hard, thinking that was the way to get better and faster. By going 80-20 in my weekly effort splits and rotating between at least 2 pairs of shoes, I haven’t had an injury of any kind for 3 years. Yet I got faster and diversified my running competitions from 5Ks to now marathons. I meet so many people who give up on running because of knee tenderness or pain, but I can’t make them take it easy or see the benefit in run-walks to start.
Appreciate this conversation and it's very timely. I finally got some x-rays done on my knees and found out I have patella alta which I guess is not great for distance running. Currently my kneecaps are both tracking totally off and pulling to the outside of my knees. Hoping that with PT I can get them back on track. Have any of you worked with runners with this issue?
I would like to get the shoe because its recommended for larger heavier runners. But for some reason, I can t get the shoe in my size (14) here in Canada. The Mizuno distribution network only ships up to size 13 here. Anyone else have that problem?
also, at 1:01:47, you are just describing an observation (people with pfp have a different activation pattern), but causality could be in the other direction than the one implied in the video ( pain -> different activation pattern, rather than the other way around), so not really convinced on that part
Don't have it on hand, but you can find a large portion of the research we've used here in our archives: www.doctorsofrunning.com/p/scholarly-research-on-running-archive.html
I wear a size 11, but I would prefer 8-10oz typically as the lower end is easier for me to control my run (at least feels like it) and then the heavier weight I feel helps absorb impact well (I’m 5’11 180-185lbs and weightlift 5 days a week) so I prefer some range in weight and shoe capabilities
Happy Friday! This week's Subjective: How light/heavy do you like your daily trainers? How important is weight to you?
I love lightweight trainers, 200g or less ,
I am a slight person, ( 47kg) nowadays I don't run more than 12km, I race mainly 5k ,
@@amandawalker4510 I prefer my trainers to be under 10 oz.
I’d pay $180 for these. I adore these. It’s like they were built exactly for my gait cycle.

Yes! Glad to see it! Happy running!

Thanks for sharing your story! Happy to hear these strategies have worked for you.

Great video! It would be nice of you could post the cited studies in the description section of the video, for further reading :)

For me a daily training has to be under or right at 9oz and with a sub 30mm stack hight and like above 20in the forefoot.
Great review! Thanks! - from one of thise "big toe" people 😂
Does this shoe help with plantar fasciitis?
Thanks for this shoe review, just bought a pair in the UK for £56. I do love a bargain 😜
Great deal. Thanks for watching and happy running!
