    Glad you're doing better! Tried this shoe on at the Chicago marathon expo. Loved it. I need a darker colorway though -- that will get dirty too fast. When I wear out one of my long run shoes, this is likely going to be the replacement. Brooks uppers are the best, and this new midsole is so plush.

    Another excellent review , Emily! ❤ Great to see you back and hope that you’re healing well. That is one of the best looking running shoes of the year. I’ve never been the biggest fan of Brooks, but I have to admit, they’re killing it in 2024! 🔥 Great T-shirt by the way 👌🏼. Go Libs! 🩵

    Glad your sinuses are doing better. I suffer from chronic non allergic rhinitis so as soon as the temps get into the 60s and there’s any type of breeze, managing my runny nose becomes a very annoying part of running. On my 1:49 half marathon in April, I only carried one gel with me, but five hankies.

    • @RunLikeHeller
      @RunLikeHeller  3 місяці тому +1

      Thank you! It’s a lot different than the Cielo x1 I’d say. No plate, heavier, more like a daily trainer. So depending on what you want to use it for it might be better. Cielo x1 will be better for long mileage/faster paces and the glycerin max will be better for long mileage /easier paces

    Good to see you back Emily. This shoe looks like the love child of my last pair of Glycerin and my pair of Auroras! It looks huge and I couldn’t help noticing from the side angle how it accentuates the over pronation in your right foot. Did you feel there was any instability? I like my NB 1080 v13 for my long runs but am totally uninspired by them when I run in them….do you think this is a better option? Or should I go for the More 4? Would value your opinion as always.

    • @RunLikeHeller
      @RunLikeHeller  2 місяці тому +1

      I would go with these over the more v4! I do overpronate (as I do in most shoes) but I don’t find them to be particularly unstable. I really enjoy running in them

      I am 6’1 210 lbs and have just decided to get into max cushion and I am completely in love with ASICS superblast 2 . Foam doesn’t sink too much at all and light for how much cushioning there is. I have not tried this shoe but have tried the puma mag max and it is too heavy to pick up the pace. It is for my size and running style , just for easy very slow recovery…

    I have some shoes with over 2000 km. I know some shoes will do less. But 400 miles would not be too ask for in this kind of shoe. And I think it will easily make 400.
    So why would Emily say it does at least 200?

    I dont know why but "super" is making its way to every shoe category- there is super recovery shoe with its super price tag - because non suoer recovery wont do it in 2024 😅
