main run of the day - easy, workouts, long runs - streak lt 4
main run of the day (as above) - streak xc - streak lt 2 (whatever I can get on ebay, currently have a pair of streak xc 3's)
short runs/any time its wet - streak 6 and streak 7
races - streak lt 4
short runs/real easy runs - brooks t5 (found a pair on ebay)
Do you all really own and run in this many pairs of shoes? I own one pair, and I've been running for a long time.
I don't race though, but if I did I'd have one pair of racing flats and one pair of trainers.
This will be my rotation. Have a couple I’m phasing out:
Saucony ISO Ride 2 (easy/steady /recovery runs on varied surfaces)
Nike Infinity React: (easy runs on the road ~ got for free)
Adidas Bostons 7/8 (long intervals/tempos/faster long runs)
Streak LT4: Fast track intervals, races mile-5k
Next %: haven’t raced in yet but 10k and up
Easy/Recovery- Ghost, Hoka, Kinvara
Intervals/speed work- Adios 3
Tempo/long interval- Boston 6, 8
Racing- Next%
Bought the Reebok FRP. What a waste of money. I’d take the heavier Adios any day.
Easy/recovery: Infinity Run, Clifton 6
General Aerobic/Long Run/Tempo: Kinvara 10, Boston 8, Peg Turbo
Track/Racing/Key Road Workouts: Next %
Easy runs: nike peg 34
Speed workouts: Nike streak lt
Tempo workouts: Adidas Boston
Racing: Next %s

I use them all for any type of run: long, short, fast, slow, recovery, trail, etc. Got most of them 50% off, that's why I have so many, otherwise I prefer to have just one or two pairs.
The only one of the lot I don't love is the Reebok. Feels like a cheap shoe.
Uhm... Do you know that these shoes are designed for different workouts? Sounds like a mayhem.
Since I'm in a base phase at the moment -
Vomero 14
OG Bondi B
Grass: Altra vanish xc
Trail: Altra superior
Road: Altra escalante racer/Altra solstice
Recovery: Hoka Clifton 4
Long Runs & Long Workouts: Fly Zoom 3
Speedwork & Short Intervals: Peg 35 Turbo
All Of The Above: Adizero Boston 8
Track Race:Nike MambaV
XC Race: NB XC 7
Easy Days/Recovery: Adidas Solar Boost 19
Long Runs/Tempo: Adidas Boston 8, Brooks Hyperion Tempo (amazing shoes)
Speed Work/Intervals: Adidas Adios 5
Races: Using Adios 5 for now but waiting for Hyperion Elite 2 or Adidas Adizero Pro
Just threw out most of my shoes to start fresh
Recovery - some big Asics, not sure what they are but you wouldn't be able to run fast in them
Easy/Long run/Hills - Pegasus 36, first month done in them, very happy, feel protected in them which is important to me for these runs
Tempo/intervals - Adidas Bostons , only have them a couple of weeks, they feel good, happy with purchase, I was using my Saucony A8's but felt i needed a little more cushion
Track Intervals & Road race(5k) - Saucony A8
Track race 400 to Mile - NB MD800 , insane spikes, these were my Vaporfly moment on the track, really feel they gave me a few %
Vaporflys have been ordered so they'll be my new 5k racer. Honestly I barely ever run 5k this was more to do with not having anything to spend money on while in quarantine. I'll use them for a few time trials over the next year or until a vacinne arrives
Skechers GoRun Pure: daily trainer, amazing value for $45ish
Altra Escalante: trail/long run shoe, occasionally easy day
Saucony Freedom ISO (not too sure if that’s right): morning shuffles/easy runs
Adidas Adizero Prime: racing flat
Nike Zoom Forever- XC spike
Adidas Adizero Avanti- track spike
Easy days and some long runs: Nike Infinity React
Easy days with some up tempo: Saucony Freedom 3
Longer intervals: Adidas Boston 8
Shorter Intervals: Nike Streak 6
Long runs with MP: Nike Turbo 1
Racing: Nike VP 4/Next %
Hoka Clifton 4's
Brooks Ghost 11's
Both are easy on my 57 year old knees.
Asics Glideride, On Cloudstratus, NB 1080

The Nike Turbo 1 feels very fast to me, but I can’t comfortably run more than 6 miles on on cement with the shoe.

I run every day in the same shoes until they wear out. At some point I would have a road shoe and trail shoe but lately, I just use a mostly worn out road shoe when I want to run muddy or wet trails. I have a pair of racing flats but haven't worn them in a couple years.
current shoe hoka Clifton 1 with 800 miles
mostly worn out shoe hoka bondi 3,068 miles
In the bullpen hoka Clifton 1 with 0 miles
Daily trainer - Boston 8, React Infinity Run
Track - Run Fast Pro, Takumi sen 3
Tempo - Old 4%/Next %
Long Runs - Novablast, Adios 4
Hoka Clifton (re-release of original) - rotation
Zoom Fly Flyknit - long stuff
Razor 3 - fast stuff, race
Floatride Forever Energy - rotation
Peg Turbo 2 - rotation (recently acquired)
I have some NB Propel on the way and am eyeing off a second pair of Razor 3 and a pair of adidas Adizero PrimeParley while both are on sale on RW Australia's site. The PrimeParley are supposed to be like adios 3 with a nice knit upper.
I have a pair of MebSpeed 5's & Razor 2's but both seem to now bang me up (efforts &/or races) and haven't run in either for a while
