Dude, I just commented on your last video again before watching this. Funny, I was going to say more there but bit my tongue. My thoughts seem to carry over and show up in your next video😆 Are you reading my mind? I have Boston 10 & Triumph 18 (both also found at Marshalls) Clifton 8 (Nordstrom Rack) Ride 14 (NR too), but they are cream colored with a hint of light shiny silver streaks. I haven't used them for workouts. They look good with any outfit, so I wear them casual. When they finally get too dirty, I'll lace up for 🏃♂️ I recently mentioned in last vid... Just found Razor Excess 2 yesterday (Marshalls $40)😲 That's $100 discount btw😎 Passed up on Winflo 8😔(Ross $40) I typically get everything at about half price or better. I run at night often and usually go with Triumph or Clifton in those instances because I know I can step on uneven surfaces without rolling ankles. The Ride 14 will be okay there as well. I am afraid of misstepping, with lack of visibility, on a less stable set. I wear headlamp and waist belt lamp, but cracks and debris and such can sneak up and surprise you. I feel like Triumph and Clifton allow me to compensate in rhythm.
Hey, I have that same shirt. I got it in Jan 2022, I ran a 50k at Anderson Snow park in Spring Hill, FL. That trail was nice and flat, it was basically an out and back run. Nothing too crazy.
I was there! Raced the 10K coming off an injury and finished 2nd overall! I admire you for the 50K. When they sent your group out, I was honestly amazed! 50K is hard for me to fathom 🤣
@@RobertHarridge The group started off much larger than what had finished. I guess a lot of people dropped out. It was a good day, perfect weather. I was seriously disappointed with the aid stations. They had food/water sitting out in direct sun.
@@FrankHale I agree, and there wasn’t enough volunteers either. At the 5K station, there was water and food, but no one there. I think next year, I may not run, but I’ll volunteer.
I want to add a few other choices: Daily Trainers: Rebook Energy 4: One of the cheapest but very decent daily trainer in the market. If you sign up for Rebook emails at Rebook site you will frequently get discount codes etc. so this is one shoe that can be purchased under $100 routinely. PUMA Velocity Nitro 2: Also very good daily trainer and like Rebook there are often opportunities to buy it under $100 if you sign up for emails at Puma web site. ASICS Evoride 3 or ASICS Tri-noosa 14: The outsole and midsole are the same on these two shoes. The upper is different with TRI-Noosa having slightly lighter one but Evoride could be more comfortable for some with a bit more built up upper. The ride will be a bit firmer than Velocity Nitro 2 but is similar to Energy 4. Speed workout shoe: PUMA Liberate Nitro is a very good speed workout shoe. It is low stack and you will get plenty of ground feel but at the same time because you are not spending too much time sinking into a soft foam you will be able to match the fast paces the workout demands. Adidas Adizero Adios 7: This is a good shoe that can be purchased routinely under $100. You have to watch Adidas website/app for deals. Also RunningWarehouse has deals on this as well. The forefoot of this shoe has Adidas' better foam Lightstrike Pro which provides great energy return. Some people use this as daily trainer as well as it has good outsole rubber coverage (durable Continental rubber) but upper is a bit more minimal vs most daily trainer. Saucony Kinvara 13: Lighweight, low to ground shoe that is great for workouts. Version 14 is coming out soon with a bit more stack. Like Rebook and PUMA, Saucony offers discount codes if you sign up for emails. Tempo/Long Run shoe: Saucony Endorphin Speed 2: This shoe is a very versatile shoe and since version 3 is out, you can buy the older version around $100. It has a high energy return PEBA foam and fairly flexible nylon plate. Many people use this for tempo, long run and even race HM/Marathon in them. If you are going to have just one shoe in your rotation this is the one. Saucony Tempus: This is a light stability shoe for those that feel a bit unstable in Endorphin Speed. It does not have any plate but have a combination of PWRRUN PB (PEBA) foam like Endorphin Speed 2 and more stable PWRRUN foam. Fairly versatile and could be racing shoe for longer races. ASICS Glideride 3: This is a great long run shoe which can also be daily trainer for some. The rocker geometry is designed to minimize ankle movement, so it is suitable for those with limitations in ankles as well.
Great list. You can get the Glideride 2 on sale for $79 right now. I know its not as good as the Glideride 3, but if you like the feel of the original, this a pretty close feel. The only reason I didnt mention the endorphin speed 2 is because I actually went to order a pair, and got them for $45, but they never shipped and Saucony had to refund me because they were completely out, so I'm assuming its going to be harder to find, and rightfully so. Overall, excellent list! Thank you for the comment!
