Fucyuman, you might be right though. Looks like it has firm cushioning, so might not be comfortable for some people.

I have skinny, long feet (13 B) and these are the best running shoes I've found. They take a little while to break in, but I love the way they fit my feet. In for another pair because I'm sure my current ones will be ready for replacement sometime soon. Thanks, OP!

Super stiff (from the Lightstrike + Energyrods) & take at least 75 miles to just break-in just to start feeling the Lightstrike Pro Frown

i'd hesitate to recommend this shoe to most runners for a few reasons
  1. it's a very firm shoe and it stays firm
    1. the break-in period is real but there are plenty of shoes out of the box that feel great, such as the Boston 12.
  2. extremely stiff
    1. you either have to run FAST to get this shoe to bend, and would prefer a snappier performance trainer in this scenario.
    2. or be happy with an extremely rockered, stiff ride. But since the forefoot is so stiff, even at slower paces (8min/mile , 5min/km) it takes a lot of calf strength to move in this shoe. I think shoes like the Saucony Endo Shift do a better job at this.
I definitely think this shoe can work for some people; would not recommend as a shoe for most runners.
I think the only benefits:
that it's a super stable platform. It feels clunky otherwise (I have 80 miles in my pair)
nice anatomical foot shape for the last (although teh Boston 12 does this too)

hope this helps ppl

they makes the shoes stiff so we buys more shoes hoping maybe just maybe this shoe will be different than the last shoe

Footbed feels great but +1 on super stiff. I'm at about 150 miles and still waiting for the break in. They're also much louder on a treadmill than my takumi sens. I don't notice the noise outside though.

If I picked up a pair of Saucony triumph 19 is there a point of keeping these for sprint type workouts either on the grass or on a track? Is this what interval training is ? Running noob. i.e. is there a point to having both ?

Also could you use this on an indoor track or treadmill?
