    Well done! I "ran" MCM as well....though since I was only in about 10 to 12 mile shape I planned to walk...a lot. Which I did...probably more than half the race. I went with the Mizuno Neo Vista since I needed something that was comfortable for running and lots of walking. Towards the end my feet were definitely getting a bit cranky in the shoe, but overall I think it was a good choice.

      @@bpg201 awesome! Congrats on the marathon. I did a 20 miler on the Neo Vista. It did also feel a little too mushy and unstable toward the end. I love the shoe and the bounce but it deteriorates after time

    I am Puma Fast R V2. Definitely amazing. Don't loose the Shark Fin. It adds aerodynamic to the shoe 🎉🎉🎉

    I need to try it. I got a pair of the deviate elite 3s...that foam is killer. It wants to cadence as well, really wants to stay mid or forefoot but amazing propulsion imo. I love my DN2 for a speed day shoe as well but really hope that foam from the the elite 3 ends up in some more of their shoes.

      @@coreyadcock awesome . They were sold out of the DNE3 so that’s why I went with thiese , I saw Rory link later run some marathons in them so i figured why not . The DNE3 is much lighter to my understanding

    Yup, I definitely need to try those out. Gave the Cielo X 1 a go and my legs feel pretty wrecked after a hard 16 miles on them. Not sure exactly what it is but I prefer the Adios Pro 3 and Alphafly 1 for race day. Next build I’m gonna pick up a pair of the Puma FastR2

      @@SantaCruzRunner thanks for the input on cielo x 1. I’ve heard most people like the ride but use it only as a trainer because it’s so heavy. But it dropped at the trials and every influencer was raving about it, so I figured it might be overhyped. Some unconscious bias if you’re flown to the trials, given shoes, covering America’s best runners …maybe I’m projecting but I think I would get caught up in the joy

      I love the Cielo X1 - one of my all time favorite shoes (race or otherwise) for sure. Ran the MCM in them for a PR of 3:05.

    Still haven’t tried Puma!! (Which isn’t saying much, lots of brands I have yet to..) these are quite interesting to me… that extended plate and all… lots of good stuff coming from Puma lately. Great review, boss! Can I call you boss? Like, shoe boss? Running boss?? 😂

    Nice work Broseff!! I wonder if the forefoot rocker position is also perfectly placed for you to assist your transition. Seems like there’s plenty of toe spring and a very stiff carbon plate

    • @MidLifeRunner
      @MidLifeRunner  19 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Yes it’s a good fit , although it’s very tight. I can’t wait to run in it more when I’m healthy again 💪🏼

  • @Yarus023

    I loved this shoe (I did a few good runs in it) and really wanted to use it at MCM. However - the forefoot was so narrow it literally made my feet numb for some reason (and I don’t have wide feet - the Puma Nitro Elite v3 fits perfectly for example). In the end I decided to return them, as they never loosed up and I didn’t want to risk the marathon in them… Shoutout to PUMA by the way for excellent return policy here in the US of A.

      They do indeed . I need to try to deviate nitro elite 3. I get that same almost numbing feel (toe shock?) from the endorphin elite but it pushes me forward so aggressively I live with it

    Got PR my half using fast r2 but got calf cramps last 2km not able to have strong finish. I think dne3 is for marathon and high cadence runner. Fr2 more on strider like kofuzi said

    I think you Puma Deviate Nitro Elite 3 would have served you better than this in the marathon. Much lighter and have the same super foam and more forefoot cushion.

    You are over thinking this - it's not that complex, it's occam's razor, you wore the wrong shoe for you, and stirring up Bowerman on the eve of your race dissing his shoe? 6:51 was achievable for you in almost any standard cushion shoe, you don't need carbon or even a racing shoe, you're too good based on that 6:37 Half 11 months ago. The best shoe on race day for non-elites is going to be the least fatiguing & stressful for your mechanics/bmi, etc, and that's probably not carbon.
