I'm a big fan of the Nike Streakfly; I mainly use it on the track and do threshold workouts with them as well. Maybe not as good for longer extended efforts but great for interval work. They don't have a plate but there's still lots of great energy return and they always feel fast!

I don’t think the rods are that noticeable in the adidas Takumi Sen. the NB rebel does not have a plate. That’s a shoe worth trying at the store first though. I’ve heard very mixed opinions.
I think you're right about needing to go into the store for this one. I feel like there are a lot of good options out there but since I'm looking for something pretty specific I need to get hands on and see for myself instead of just looking at reviews. It's been a good decade since I've been back my running specialty store!
i do all my workouts in the converse chuck taylor all-star. i personally recommend the hi tops.
I got this,...

Streakfly for threshold intervals gets my vote. People don't like it but it's really light and feels fast to run in. Definitely lacks cushion if you're used to their plated shoes but I wonder if v2 will address that issue while keeping the fun aspect
