  • SJD impression alert 🚨 : This is a first impression video of the latetest running super shoe from Mizuno. I frequently make "5 on 5" vidoes, which are 5 minutes in the first 5 miles of any particular shoe. For the Wave Rebellion Pro 2, I needed more time to find the words. I took these shoes out for 3 runs. A half marathon paced run, the 13 mile progressive long run seen in this video, and a sharp 5k to mile workout a few days later.
    This video is broeken into two segments. The long run and then the post run thoughts. I cut out a lot of rambling about the Boston marathon and how the training is going because I figured anyone watching this only wants to hear about the shoe.
    If you're interested in the shoe you can get it here:

    If you want to know how the 5k block is going, I will be making a "Breaking 18" video before June 9th. However, I did create membership tiers and if you sign up, I upload coach's calls and how the training is going along with other content. You can join here.

    4:53 - so you can heel lock the shoe, just not in a traditional manner. What I did was skip the 2nd to last eyelet and go to the last one, then went back to the 2nd to last to make the loop so I could pass the laces through there. I thought this shoe was too loose for me until I did that.

    Thanks for the heads up on deal on this shoe. Last week I got my pair delivered. I had run in TTS in a demo shoe and 1/2 up will also work with a bit more space in front of my toes. Tighten the laces so midfoot hold is great.

    • @MidLifeRunner
      @MidLifeRunner  Місяць тому +2

      Upon further review - still amazing, especially at faster stuff. True to size might work better than half size up without much heel padding to help lock down and no racers loops .

    Loved the fact you put some time in , ran at different paces and reported on how it feels , not that different from the first one (especially the walking bit) deffo bring a old pair of throwaways to a major marathon. Ran a PB in New York in the first version (at my pace not that hard) , but I did .. and that shoe was underrated, in fact I was the only person I saw on the day with it on. I am not comfortable running sub-7's yet. I am working on both my weight and being coached with focus on the half for the fall / Autumn, If I make the same improvement this year that I did last (would make me as comfortable at 6:30's as I am currently at 7:30's) . Then I will hit the buy button on a full Mizuno rotation as I will do the shoe justice. on a side note I still have a box fresh pair of the originals in that Japanese calligraphy black and white colourway.

    • @MidLifeRunner

      I’ve never run a 5k race- done some time trials early on, working it down from 22:35 ->21:15->20:18->19:35->18:57->18:10… however that was at the track and I didn’t have track mode, so maybe it was 18:30?? I’m trying to break 18 based on the feeling I can hold 5:45 for 3.12 miles. It will be challenging in the heat and humidity for the last mile but we I’m excited for the challenge . What’s your 5k PB? I am going to run a couple of 5ks and then a 10k

      @@MidLifeRunner I broke 18:00 last year with a 17:50 during my first try last summer. Ran raster pace for another 5k but the course had a ton of frustrating as my watch pace was 5:40. If you have time, a few sauna sessions of 15-30 minutes will def help with acclimation.

    My biggest question about the shoe is what happens when you’re dead tired in the late miles of marathons, which is when even the pros heel strike.
