    Let's do a challenge for a follow up video to this. Set a budget of £300/400 and each tester has to buy a 3 shoe rotation based on whatever deals they find and compare they choices, then do a full marathon training cycle complete with marathon with chosen race shoe. So it can be an ongoing series

    Glad you mentioned the Mizuno Neo Vista.
    In short it's an incredible shoe. They have hit the nail on the head! Can fit in both easy, fast day and long runs.
    For many it could be the one shoe wonder. Better than the superblast i reckon.
    Mizuno rotation; Sky (latest version is so plush!), Neo Vista as above, Race day, Rebellion pro2 (great if you're bang on a neutral runner and mid foot strike).

    1. Daily- Kayano 31
    2. Speed day- Adios pro 3 (would have gone for Boston 12 since it’s more durable, but can’t find the right fit)
    3. Race day- Vaporfly 3

    I ran my fastest half marathon in the Rebellion Pro 2 and really love them. But I think I will go Metaspeed Sky for my future marathon. But I may hesitate even if the Pro 2 is more dangerous for the ankles for a 26.2 race

  • @alexkhan2000

    When Adidas comes out with Adios Pro 4, Evo SL, and Adios 9, they'll have a very formidable lineup with current and new versions of Takumi Sen, Boston, Prime X Strung, and SL2. The only thing missing would be an easy/recovery max stack type of shoe with LSP, but that probably wouldn't fit in the Adizero line since it's supposed to be about speed and performance. Puma 's lineup with DNE3, DN3, and MagMax is pretty solid. Hoka with the Cielo X1 (or Rocket X 2, which I haven't tried), Mach X 2, and Skyward X is also very good. The Metaspeed Sky Edge/Paris and Superblast 2 covers it for me for ASICS.
    As for NB, the SC Elite v4 was somewhat of a letdown for me when compared to Alphafly 3 and Sky Paris, but I like the SC Trainer v2, Rebel v4, 1080v13, and More v5. I have other shoes from other brands like the Neo Vista, Hyperion Max 2, Mount to Coast R1, and On Cloudsurfer, for some different flavors, but I don't think I would build whole rotations out of them. Not interested in Nike except for their top-tier race shoes. Right now, I like what Adidas, Puma, ASICS, and Hoka are doing and where they are going.

But I really think you could just do the Super Blast 2 and the Glycerin Max and call it good for a whole training cycle.

    It’s a shame prices have spiralled out of control now for a lot of faster shoes to ridiculous prices especially as longevity not great. My rotation now just a mixture of daily type trainers with more cushioning for long run and lighter firmer versions for intervals/tempo. Companies marketing shoes like magic beans when consistent training will bring far more benefits.

    • @thiagopiresleite
      @thiagopiresleite 2 месяца назад +5

      An easy shoe will be heavier, more comfortable, and less dynamic. Since its focus is on comfort and stability, it will have more materials and weight more. A race shoe will be the opposite: fast, dynamic and lightweigh, with a carbon plate in it to make it responsive and springy. They take some getting used to it and might feel less comfortable for beginners. The daily shoes sit somewhere in between in terms of weight, comfort and responsiveness. They may have a plate or not.
