+1 on the thyroid/heat resistance aspect. Sauna heat training was a missing ingredient for me in the summer to avoid heat exhaustion and dehydration that led to cramping. 7-10 sessions of sauna before a marathon or ultra can REALLY help you!
Thank you for your suggestions! I actually picked up the Hyperion 2 GTS and it worked perfectly. I’ll probably try out the EP4s for the race just to give myself the mental advantage of having a carbon plate, but I’m going to give the Noosa Tris a try!
the best 5min advice on cycling! I got knee and TFL pain from a poor fit. Once I could identify the issue, it took 4-6 weeks to slowly regain pain-free running.
Regarding the first viewer question from Joseph - your explanation is great but it would be even more helpful if there were examples of shoes to illustrate how they’d remediate the problem as described. If you can add that to the comments that would be fantastic! Thanks for the video 😊
4 critical features for Hyrox are: - forefoot grip (lugs preferred) due to sled push - heel lock also due to sled push - forefoot flexibility also due to sled push - heel stability for exercises like sled pull, farmers walk, lunges and wallballs
I am 68 years-old. In 1998, I shattered my right calcaneus and had reconstruction surgery. Two years later the screws and plate were removed. After several years of PT, I could walk a mile and now I can run 10K mostly pain-free. I have been able to struggle through a few half marathons significant pain in what I think is my anterior talofibular ligament and extensor digitorum longus muscle. I dream of running a marathon but pain reaches a point where my ankle seems to freeze and give up by mile 15. I feel like the lateral side of my foot is doing too much work and I seem to toe-off more on the second toe than the big toe on that darn right foot. Do you have any advice on how I can reduce running pain and increase tolerable mileage? Thank you for your help?
I have the Hyperion Max 1 and I've have tried on Hyperion 2, and imo neither one has a better more comfortable upper or more responsive midsole as the Topo Cyclone 2. For only $10 more than the Hyperion 2 your getting a all pebax midsole. That's what I call value. Topo doesn't cheap out on their insoles like some other brands do. If the Cyclone 2 had the Brooks name on it, I'd bet some of the more popular sizes of that shoe would be sold out.
@@ammyers56 thanks! I wanna try these - even though like you I generally do not like very cushioned or high stack shoes. But after your thoughts on this one… I am tempted;)
Andrea, what happened to the Mizuno Wave Rebellion 2? lol after seen your podcast/video I went and purchased it. Really loving running in these shoes, so I was surprised you didn’t mention it. :(
I have almost 250 miles on the Wave Rebellion Flash 2 - they are my favorite long run shoe! The Pro 2 was going to be my Osaka Marathon shoe, but I got COVID 2 weeks before so I didn’t race 😞 They will definitely be my next marathon shoe, but I’ve been focusing on 5k/10k this summer, so Cloudboom Echo 3 has been my go to racing shoe. Glad you love them as much as I do!
I wanted to buy a pair, but only one colorway is available. I’m putting Mizuno vista on the back burner and hope more colorways are available in the future.

Thank you for this. Replacing easy runs with cycling is very timely for me.
More Andrea episodes please!

Oh my gosh! I found you by chance and so glad I did! I’ll be writing in with questions soon! You want complex questions, well I might be able to help!

That’s great! Good luck with your race!

Fantastic podcast 🎉 the hip flexor section totally resonated
Team Puma MagMax ❤
That shoe is a cheat code in the game of running shoes for easy, long recovery run.

another trail shoe without a heel counter: Adidas Terrex Agravic Speed

Regarding the hip flexor/vomero question, I can’t run in the Pegasus Plus without my knees being sore.
Do the magmax have a bit more width in the forefoot than other puma shoes? I find puma pretty narrow most of the time
Yes - I also find most Puma’s to be narrow in the toe box. Magmax is definitely a little wider, which is very nice!
@@ammyers56 thanks! I wanna try these - even though like you I generally do not like very cushioned or high stack shoes. But after your thoughts on this one… I am tempted;)
Another vote yes, I can fit in the Deviate Elite but not in the Velocity, even in a wide for whatever reason. Magmax fits me comfortably

They felt weird on my feet at first but that went away like mile 1. Thanks for the video!
That Magmax colorway is nice. Much better than the men’s one I’ve seen in reviews
I wanted to buy a pair, but only one colorway is available. I’m putting Mizuno vista on the back burner and hope more colorways are available in the future.
I have ankle tenosynovitis injury, what running shoe do you recommend coming out of such an injury? Thanks
I think I’m in the same boat
