Decent for easy runs and can pick up tempo quite nicely. Very versatile in the sense that it can be used from easy effort up to temp with easy. The heel is fast and the fit is snug. If u r looking for a shoe to do everything (perhaps not best for racing) this is a decent option

The Brooks Hyperion Max 2 is a great all around shoe that provides plenty of cushion making it very comfortable to run in. It has thick rubber bottoms making it highly durable. They are lightweight and are easy to fit my orthopedic insoles into. They are my favorite running shoe.
