Thanks for the video. My current rotation is Endorphin Speed 3 for Daily and Recovery runs, Nike Streaklfly for Tempo and 5K/10K races, and the Endorphin Pro 3 for the Half Marathon distance.

Easy/Recovery: Pegasus 39 Speed/Long: Endorphin Speed 2 Race: Vaporfly Next% 2 Trail: Peregrine 12

Brilliant video with lots of great insights, thanks

Everyday: Brooks Adrenaline GTS 22. They’re really stable, great tread, I find them fairly responsive. I don’t have to think about them at all while I’m running. Long road miles: NB FreshFoam 1080X. Maybe a little slower, but the wide contact on the forefoot corrects some habitual lateral roll through my stride. Trails: Brooks Caldera 5. Really enjoyed these during my first 50k trail race. Good structure and grip that made running over rocks and roots no trouble at all. No foot pain at any point during the race. This video got me really interested in the Saucony Endorphin Speed 3 and the Puma Velocity Nitro 2. I love that you bring in shoes from different perspectives and for different goals. Cheers!

Great video! Thanks 🙏

Great video. Nice to see which shoes you all enjoy running in on a regular basis. I might have to get a pair of the magic speed 2.

Great vid, for me: Daily/ long run: ASICS Glideride 3 Daily/ tempo: ASICS Noosa Tri 14 Road race/ intervals: Puma deviate nitro elite Trail: NB More Trail V2 Road to trail/ dog runs: ASICS Fuji lite 2 I suppose an honourable mention is the Pegasus 39. I feel like a great allrounder which I just don’t need. But still occasionally pull it out the cupboard for light trails or winter/ slippy conditions.

Daily/Easy: Ultraboost 19 Intervals/Tempo: Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro (only done a couple of runs in them so far but love them) Long runs: NB 1500v4

I have a wide mix in my rotation: Tecton X Altra Lone Peak 6 NB Rebel V3 Hoka Clifton 8 Enjoy all of them. Was thinking of adding a cushy easy show like Nimbus 25 or maybe NB SC Trainer. Except for the Tecton X all my shoes are 2E wide. The Tecton X actually fits me well despite being offered in one width and is actually my favourite shoe of my bunch.

I’m a big fan of the Tecton X - I ran the full length of the Basingstoke Canal in them last month (50+k) in around 4h30 - totally comfortable and quickish. I’m about 250 miles in now, still good. Mega discounts on the original shoe now (I think £75 at Sports Shoes?!).

Been running in my Vivobarefoot Primus Trail II for over a year now for year round trail running and still going strong. Primus Lite III for everything else.

Slow plodder here, Haven't found a carbon shoe that I liked and is worthwhile. Current rotation is the Speed 2s for intervals and races (I race maybe 2x a year only) and for easy and long runs, Velocity 2, Adios 6, and Skechers Ride 10 (in various stages of wear).

The Nimbus 25 is UNREAL on how cushioned it is. Blown away. Only maybe NB More V4 comes close.

For the long runs I have the Saucony Xodus Ultra for shorter and faster efforts I have a pair of Peregrine 12s. Both are available at an excellent price at the moment. I got the Xodus for for an unbelievable £69.99 delivered from Get the Label.

I think I’ll be getting that MagicSPEED 2 once my latest Endorphin Speed 2s are run out - after seeing the fit on Nick’s pair I’ve been keeping away from the ES3

this really shows how shoes are very personal, there was huge range of different shoes in here

I think if I had to pare my shoe collection down to 3 or 4 shoes it would be: Recovery: Asics Novablast 3 Easy/Long: Hoka Mach 5 Interval/Tempo: NB Rebel v3 Race: Puma Deviate Nitro Elite 2 +Trail: New Balance Hierro v7 That's most of the shoes I find myself reaching for most of the time. I also like Nick's Puma Velocity Nitro 2, but just pipped by the Mach 5 these days.

Recovery / daily run @ 4:15 - 4:30 min per KM (when i feel good 4:05 per km)= Asics Novablast 3 medium temp / long run @ 4:05 - 4:15 min per km = Nike Fly 4 or SAUCONY ENDORPHIN PRO 3 HEREN. Fast @ 3:45 -4:05 min per KM = Nike tempo next % note minimal rundistance = 10 km per session

Easy day Triumph 20. Short speed Adios Takumi Sen 8. Tempo to really anything Speed 3 and Marathon Endorphin Pro 3. I’ve never run in a puma shoe and I’m really itching to get one. Maybe the deviate nitro.

I've only ever owned a pair of Pegasus 38's (Yes I just started running!) but my Invincible 3s arrive today :D

Recovery: New Balance More V4 Tempo + Speed: Saucony Endorphin 2 Daily: Hoka Mach 5 and ASICS Novablast 3 Trail: Saucony Peregrine 12 GTX Testing the NB3 right now. Might return them if I can’t fit it into my rotation. Any suggestions?

The information you provided is correct. This is what I was looking for in running shoes!

I just got Nike Pegasus nature on sale over hear in the states . I too watched some negative reviews but am pleasantly surprised. It is a nice daily trainer ; good to get away from a max cushion shoe which may not be good to use all the time . The attached tongue makes it slightly hard to get in and out of but great shoe that I think got a lot of negative reviews for not being like the originals. Hardly notice all the recycled content .

I’m in love with the Nike invincible 3’s. I tried them on in a run4it store and it fit like a glove. I injured my knee a couple of years ago and whenever it flares up, I run in my Nikes and it makes the discomfort disappear. So comfortable and I can’t definitely feel them taking pressure off of my joints. I even use them as a recovery aid after doing runs that have hurt my feet and legs, they really help, I pop them on and walk around the house and they soothe my feet nicely. Maybe not the best shoes for people used to running as you can get better performance from other shoes and might not need as much cushioning, but for beginners or people recovering from injuries, they are a magical experience!

Sorry, could somebody please summarise everybody's picks? I keep forgetting what previous people picked as I have had to watch this over several days. Thank you for the video.

Daily trainer - hoka Mach 5, race shoe - endorphin pro. Looking for a new daily trainer and tempo shoe. I like the Mach 5 but was wondering about either the Mach X or the ASICS super blast to add to my rotation. I'm trying out the hoka rocket x 2 which is OK but not as comfortable as the endorphin pro

Can you please review some Newton shoes? Thanks!

If you guys could get some lapel mics for a couple of ya and maybe record in a room with either foam or tapestries on the wall would really really really help.

I used to only run in one pair of shoes but that was before i took anything seriously, just ran like once or twice a week. But ever since i started training more seriously and chased those PBs, i found that having a rotation of at least 2-3 shoes makes a huge difference. One reason is that the shoes will last a bit longer if u rotate between them, but more importantly, different shoes serves different purposes. Lighter and bouncier shoes makes u run so much faster with less energy, whilst the heavier and more cushioned ones gives ur foot more protection for those longer/slower runs, and yes u can actually feel a difference. Hopefully this helps explain some stuff hahah

Injuries are not unique to running. Are humans not meant to do anything that can cause injuries? Jobs, hobbies, etc. are all risky, so best to stay home? I'd say that injury risk is minimal when you have good form, listen to your body (stop when you feel anything wrong), and use good gear for extra safety.
