Reebok Run Fast / Streak / Adios / Something Else

The Reebok Floatride Run Fast is available on various online shops. Not sure what you mean.

Freedom iso caused pain in my foot . switched back to asics ds trainer.

Sorry, by "on sale", I meant discounted. The other ones you could probably find for at least 50 bucks less.

Not sure about reebok but IMO Adios>Streak>Boston>Zoom Fly

Has anyone ran a marathon in the Nike LT-Streak?

Vaporflys....

why not also consider the sub2? it's on sale most places now so more in line with the others instead of overpriced.

I haven't really heard much good about the Sub 2, so that's why I wasn't considering it. I think I'm leaning toward the Adios, but I've never run in Adidas before. Tried Ultra Boost for a few runs, but something didn't feel quite right.

Thanks for the suggestions!

I've been using the LT-Streak 3/4 as a daily runner for the past year, up to 30 miles. I wouldn't say I would recommend it for everyone, but if you are

As others have said I'd recommend the Adios. Boston's are basically the same shoe with some added bulk. I tried Zoom Flys and they were insanely stiff - felt like bricks, sent them back after 50 miles.

I'm also tempted to try the Floatride Run Fast as well, but ya waiting on the price to drop. The weight is about 1.5 oz lighter than the Adios so pretty intriguing..

Looking for a 10k-marathon shoe. I'm currently between these few:

Reebok Floatride Run Fast

Nike Streak 6

Adidas Adios

Somewhat considering:

Adidas Boston

Nike Zoom Fly?

Any suggestions? I'm kind of leaning toward the Streak based on reviews, but the Floatride is also getting great feedback, but not available on sale yet.

I currently run in Pegasus / Saucony Ride, Freedom ISO.

Is there a shoe site out there that I can select 5 shoes at once and compare them side-by-side? If not, it'd be great to see.

I like the nb 1400.

Adios ftw

The Reebok is a truely great shoe. Picked up for £60 last week when Reebok had a 50%.

Zoom fly is a great shoe. I prefer it to the Vaporfly, which I use only for 5 K’s.

So what do most people do when you want to try out 5 pairs of shoes?

I could go to a running store, hope they have what I want, jog a bit on the treadmill and a) Be a jerk and buy elsewhere online or b) Pay full price (I know..support local business...)

Or do I buy all pairs online, run a few miles in each (Preferable to 1 minute on the treadmill) and then return? I know most online retailers allow returns on worn shoes, but Running Warehouse warns against excessive returns. I also feel like I'm screwing over the company because they obviously can't sell the shoes.

I'm relatively flat-footed, and I like shoes that offer some amount of support, as my calfs get pretty beat up racing over long distances. I just ran a half in my first pair of adios, and I'm a big fan. They feel substantial under foot, but they also feel fast and responsive, which is obviously essential for a racing shoe (I ran 1:16:20s, fwiw). Three days post-race, I feel like I'm recovering well, and I don't have the same degree of soreness I've had using less supportive shoes.

I have the Streak 6, and they're more of a 5K shoe for me based entirely on the lack of support (for my biomechanical needs). I tried on the Zoom Flys and they didn't feel right so I returned 'em.

I think it should be between the

Run fast Pro or Streak LT 4 or Vaporfly

Run Fast Pro and Streak LT 4 are pretty minimal to be for much over 5k. Also trying to get the best price per mileage here (i.e., not $250). I picked up a pair of Adios though Adidas with a 15% coupon. About $80. I can try them out and return for full refund if needed.

How much do you weight, and what times are you trying to run? What characteristics do you want in a shoe (weight, cushion, fit, etc)? I'm going to assume you're a neutral runner based on your training shoes.

The Adios will work for anything from 10 km to the marathon. It's perfect for the half. I found myself wishing for a bit more cushioning in the last few miles of the one marathon I've run in the Adios.

I use the Boston as a daily trainer, so I still do a fair amount of fast running in them. It would work for a 10 km, but I'd prefer to have a lighter shoe for something that short. I'd definitely wear the Bostons if I had to race a marathon again. They have more cushion than the Adios and are a bit roomier in the forefoot.

One thing to keep in mind, I had to size up half a size from Nike to Adidas. I'm an 11 in Nike and an 11.5 in Adidas. The Boost cushioning is what sold me on Adidas. From the first few steps in the Adios, I was like "Wow, these shoes are amazing!" I hadn't experienced that feeling when putting on new shoes in a long time. They're fast, responsive, and they'll last you many miles.
