I checked the weight is about 290g. Definitely it is on the heavier side for me. Now most of the running shoes I aim below 250g.

Maybe u can try saucony range 😉 like kinvara , glide etc ..
Currently I am wearing endorphins speed 3. Weight is less than 230g but this price is on the high side .

saucony endorphin series is very good especially if one can get used to the speedroll technology. Love its midsole foam, but outsole wears off fast and lack of grip on wet floors. Saucony Endorphin speed 1, 2 and Endorphin Pro 3 user.
for heel strikers, recommend don't choose endorphin series. Go for Ride or Triumph.

Let me intro you to Niko Niko running. Design for old folks where speed is not a priority, but safety and longer session is the focus. PErsonally never tried, coz too slow and boring and not for one with running goals.
Niko Niko running is really veryyyy slow. But solidly good & SAFE for beginners (regardless of age) transiting to jogging / running from brisk walking. The research behind it is suprisingly good.

can try
adidas boston 12
asics novablast 4
brooks ghost max
new balance Fresh Foam X 1080v13
WIth my limited (not a fan of high cushion) experience with high cushion shoes, I used the ASICS Novbablast 2 and the NB Fuelcell Rebel v3 for recoveries and LSD when I expecting sore feet in the end. I can feel they help compare to my usual daily trainer with firmer foams.
I would suggest giving the Asics novablast 3 or 4 a look. as they are lighter than my v2 and still retain the soft characteristic.

Good choices.

I would add Feiying Team 2.0. Did a 9k first run with it on Friday. Feels like a cheaper version of Rebel 3. Although from 7k, it started to become firmer. Price only $60.

Feiying Plaid is overkill but the cushioning is tops. I was using it only for intervals initially.

Recently did two zone 2 runs with it. Damn, felt like cheat code! Easily went from 7min/km to 6.45/km. The thing is I felt effortless. Not even fair. :s13:

Both runs ran 7k until bored. Last 2.5k chiong under 5min/km. Shiok.

You mean Qiaodan Feiying Plaid? I love Plaid. I wish I could wear it for every run, but I need to rotate my running shoes.

To me, Plaid is better than PB3.0 in every way. I have both PB3.0 and Plaid. Haven't tried PB4.0 becos of my experience with 3.0. It's not a bad shoe, but pales in comparison to Plaid.

have you tried adidas adios pro 3? i am curious to know difference between these 2.
pb3.0 does not do slow well, whereas aap3 can do fast and slow well in terms of bounce from midsole.

Ya I'm aiming 飞影4 and 特步两千公里.

In addition, Rebel 4 and 1080 V13 if the price ever drops. Too many choices. :ROFLMAO:
Do note the very high tongue sticking out for pb4. I mentioned it one of my previous post. I am sensitive to long tongue, so pb4 is out for me.

They market it as a cushion daily trainer for under 10k. I would compare it to Rebel 2 and 3.

High cushion could be 飞影4.0 and 必迈远征者5 though I have not tried them yet.

I wanted to get the 必迈 together with Team2.0 but too many shoes!

not trying 必迈惊碳fly? 远征者5.0 looks very interesting.

After gym, rain stopped and run 15 minutes again to makan dinner also feel hot 🥵

My pace for both is about 7.5 minutes only :grin:

I am yet trying to maintain a pace where I can jog forever :sad:


Almost fall asleep if I wasn't paying attention to my watch tracking the HR, managed to run 6.09 min/km pace for 9.05km (a few upslopes in the route).

Avg. HR: 141

Been a while since I ran this pace.
