'Speed fomr' run.
4K warmup
Sprint 8 x 400m / 3.5 mins walking rest
2K cool down
Target pace for the 400s is 4:02
I got 4:00 3:57 4:01 4:02 3:57 4:04 3:58 3:46
Awesome, felt so fast, and run was done with over 90% humidity!
This was my first run in my new Saucony endorphin speed 2s :
This shoe is out of this world. By far the best shoe i have ever run in. Because of the plate and because of it's built.
The plate is a sensation, it is whole new sport running in them, I could never imagine that so much pop/spring can exist. And it s not even carbon. Damn we should have had those in the jumping days.
The build is also incredible. Shoe is light, breathable, very well cushioned but also insanely fast. The nylon plate is just perfectly balanced, you feel it, you have to push to bend it and get more pop back but id doesn't take effort like i read for carbon ones. Ride is stable,cushioned, yet firm and insanely springy/fast. A perfect all rounder, no brainer #1 choice of everything i have worn so far, for all spectrum of runs, from easy runs to races.
Only 2 cons : They are not fitted for slow runs. They can take them, but you can't go slow in them. That pop in every step just propels you, it is impossible to keep it slow, you end up minding to break all the time. Also, as noted in the reviews, the traction on wet is trash. Even on humidity-caused moist areas i would slip. On dry though they are awesome. Weird.
