💯 with everything you listed. In addition to rotating heel drops and stack heights, I'd like to add rotating midsole materials; i.e., EVA, PEBA, TPEE, TPU, etc. to the list.
You are Absolutely right, different compounds can have a role in the mix as well. This doesn’t include plates and what not. I also heard it mentioned as we knew that shoes need 24 hrs to re-expand after a run. Also to not hoard shoes as they break down overtime in as little as a year. Interesting
Since I started using a shoe rotation, I have found that I am far less prone to injury and that even the number of niggles and joint aches that I get are far fewer. Plus the shoes themselves seem to last longer, with being rested.
That’s great to hear. Anything that keeps us running longer and injury reduced is a good thing all around. Happy for ya and your shoes thank you also 😌

I’m a shoe hoarder. Oops
@RunningNPAdventures Definitely. I never wear the same shoe two days in a row to allow the midsole to relax. Helps with shoe longevity.
@RunningNPAdventures Ditto. Retired running shoes become gym 🏋️♀️ shoes.
Yup. Yard work 😌
