I've only done 40+km i this shoe but absolutely love it. Totally agree that it really pushes you to go faster. It's like the cruise control in the shoe is set at a higher pace and the feet just turn over so fast and easy. What I really appreciate is the wide base and stability of the shoe, it's very forgiving on tired legs and bad form. I don't have the Speed so can't compare, but seeing that you somewhat overpronate it could be a good idea to think about which shoe will serve you best during the later miles in the race.
Yep I do fatigue pronate so you are right gotta be thinking of the whole distance 🤔🤔🤔
Tough question! I now have both the Speed and Elite 2, and in terms of late race - and we all know the marathon race "begins" around miles 16-18 when everyone who went too fast clunks out - I'd choose the Brooks. It seems the speed will require better form due to its softness, and the Brooks should be more forgiving while still performing at a high level.
Oh that’s great advice
For the marathon distance, I would certainly use my Hyperion Elite 2 before my Endorphin Pro. Just amazed by this shoe. I love it and feel it will be more forgiving over the marathon distance. Don't get me wrong, I do love my Endorphin Pro but do love the fit, cushioning, responsiveness and stability of the shoe. Everything the Endorphin Pro have but over the marathon distance, I feel the Hyperion Elite will outperform. It is an expensive shoe indeed but still less than the Alphafly and Vaporfly. I'm debating between Alphafly and Hyperion Elite 2 for my next marathon. Good review !
Thanks! Yeah I’m kinda torn I’m thinking this as well
Love these shoes! Took them straight out of the box for 18 miles. Then did a speed workout the next day and felt great. Super pleased and look forward to using them more.
Yeah I agree you knows good shoe as soon as you can go out and bag distance in them
I have taken the speed in a virtual half and it was awesome sure it would be good on a marathon too but if this elite 2 felt as good on a long run I’d take the carbon plate for the 26.2. The last 3-4 miles I’d want all the help I could get. Will be tuning in to find out!
Oh you’ve really got me thinking
Fordy your review on Brooks Hyperion Elite 2 is spot on.For me Saucony Speed is more tempo shoe and slightly more forgiving then carbon plate shoe.If you are still not very "familiar"with carbon plate shoe go then with Speed.But if you're ok with c.plate shoe
go for faster Brooks Elite 2.I would even prefer them over Alphafly for better stability.When comes to choose Vaporfly or Alphafly I'd prefer lighter Vaporfly for marathon distance.
Thanks so much! Great comment really appreciate it
Another great vid :) Love the colorway!
Thanks!
Very interesting review Fordy as im thinking of getting a carbon plated shoe, top of my list was the Hyperion pro now im not sure. Think i will wait for the NB RC Elite to come out as i luv NB especially the uppers and they always fit true to size.
I know that’s the one I’m looking at with the fuelcell OMG it could be unstoppable
How does DNA Flash compare to ZoomX and PWWRUN PB in regards to bounce and springiness?
It’s a more compact feeling and the bounce is more controlled
I vote the Brooks one for the next marathon: lots of people will probably do the Speed so it will be interesting to see how this one goes. Plus it fits you so it should go ok. A few seem to have fit issues with it around the ankle.
Yeah I’ve had no probs yet
Just shows what a good job saucony have done with the speed, when your comparing it with a shoe thats nearly £100 more expensive
You are dead right!
Mine should be here in a week - I’m so excited 🥳🎉
Let me know how you get on
I still think Saucony Pro actually...but I do love the Speed.
Oh the pro ok Tks a lot
Just imagine if the hyperion tempo was designed like the elite 2 just like how the endo speed is designed like the pro
Yeah!
You’d think there is more stack in the Brooks but that’s just the design being one colour, I’ll have to buy a pair to know for sure....damn. Btw loved you quoting the elite 1 price in £, elite 2 in $...then the life of of the 2 in km and 1 in miles 🤯 great review as always 👍
Just trying to keep everyone happy 🤦♂️🤦♂️😂😂
Hey Fordy, love your videos mate, but please can you upload them in higher quality? 480p looks terrible when watching on a large monitor or TV. Keep up the great work!
Wow didn’t realise this uploaded in that quality 🤦♂️ thanks for the heads up
You want to be comfortable running the marathon as you’ll get tired toward the end. I would say go with your favourite running shoe, the Asics Glideride 👍
Oh no that’s a good shout
I don't think you could go wrong with any options. How many miles did you get in? That would be my only concern how will it feel.over the distance if you haven't had a long run.
I’m switching between the two at the mo as we get closer to race day
Would love to see a comparison/vs video between the HE2 and the Speed according to your preferences.
On its way!
My first run gave me blister on my Achilles. Although very positive otherwise. Will use runners lock and a medium thick sock to help. Using it for any race distance 5k -1/2M
Good luck!
I think you should still run in the Saucony endorphin speed
Yeah I’m thinking the same
Go with the Speed. I have them on order and would like your review from a marathon perspective.
Yeah would be interesting
Looks good, tempted, but I just PB'ed my 5k , 10k , 21 km, 30 km, and 42 km from my times 5-6 years ago (ha ha) respectively in the last 2 months using the GlideRide - tried the Metaracer but I just couldn't get the same feel as the GlideRide - How's the cushioning on this compared to the GlideRide ? Am a bit of a heel striker but getting better towards the midfoot. Thanks Fordy, and as always , keep up the good work 👌
GlideRide is for those easy long runs defo not for those tempo days. I’d recommend taking a look at the Saucony speed if you want some cush but speed
@@FordyRuns, OK doke, will give it a shot, thanks Fordy 👍👌👍
do these have wider toebox than endorphin pro 2?
Sounds like you enjoyed them, very curious about these and may need to pick up a pair. That price though is painful 😳
I know it’s so annoying if they were 150-200 would be better
I would check which is more stable to handle the 26.2mi... from what I hear the HE2 sounds more stable while still soft enough...
Yeah that’s what I’m thinking
I love brooks but they really have to work on their color game, especially for the mens shoes.
There are some truly great shoes coming out at the moment, will you be getting the NB RC elite when it comes out ?
I’d love those not sure when we get them in the Uk as everything is delayed
I found these quicker than even the vaporflys
Since you got both, why not just go run 26.2 in both to see what will work before the virtual race? 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏻♂️
I’m not gonna hit the distance before as don’t have time
Still one more long run before the taper? Would be interesting to see how it performs
I need to decide for that 20 miler which one to run in! I was hoping you guys could help 😂😂😂 whatever I do the 20 in is the shoe I’m running the virtual in
FORDY RUNS definitely worth taking the Brooks for a test then! I think we know what the Speed is capable of and would be interesting to see how fresh your legs would feel in comparison.
Actually I have noticed the nylon plate in the speed softening up (done over 230miles in mine). There’s definitely less pop than when it was new.
Alright Fordy, I normally run in the Brooks Adrenaline 20, (5km about 22.45) will these get me the sub 22.00 that I need to beat my mates PB? 👍
Sure
I don't believe that you can shave off 45 seconds over the 5k distance with these shoes
You have to shave off every km of 9sec.I think it's feasible in this particular shoe.Even using my Hyperion Tempo I was able to improve my PBs for 10k 3times in row.(super pleased..)
@@juliankeren5731 I believe shaving off 9 sec/ km is too optimistic with the Hyperion elite 2, here is my personal experiences over the 5K comparing my PBs in a Carbon-plated shoe against a non-Carbon shoe
Next % (PB): 17:33
Adios 4 : 18:01
I bet you could shave some off just by weight alone. I ran a 1/2 in adrenaline, the next year I did it in the vaporfly and shaved off 8 min - some down to fitness for sure - but these super shoes really work especially over long distances. Not as stable as the adrenaline though but for race day they are great.
The shoe looks amazing, but the overall feel of the speed would just pip it, oh plus the price!!!
Yeah true money talks 😂
