New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Trainer v2

A ran in V1 for hundreds of miles.  Love them and didn’t the investment to go to the Elite was worth it.  As a heavier runner, I liked the comfy ride of V1.  V2 has pros and cons.  V2 has a faster race day feel, and I do feel like I am faster in V2.  It is a bit lighter and has less bounce, but also less cushioning.  Trade offs for sure.  Since I am not an elite runner, I miss the bouncier feel of V1.  I ran NYC Marathon in these and they were rock solid all the way.  In the end, it will come down to preference.  V2 will absolutely get you there and it has snap.  

I've been running in this shoe for 4 months.  I run 50-90k/week and the shoes have held up well, I've bought another pair to replace them when these are done.  I haven't run in the competitions super cushioned shoes.  But, my legs have never felt better after running 15-20k runs.  

Rock solid training shoe.  Stable and with good cushioning for longer runs.  Good for wider feet and heavier runners.  Sole wears down pretty quick, so for the price it is a bit expensive.  While not big on being fashionable - I really liked the colors.   

For the last few years I have been a big 1080 fan, and will still probably use them for the longer distances- but I liked these so much I bought 2 pairs.

The cushioning makes it a great option as a trainer, but the extremely responsive foam and plate gives you that extra pop when working down the pace. The combination. of support and speed makes it the a top tier option for fast long runs and other longer work at quicker paces. 

I bought these in preparation for a long race on July 4th! I have run through many pairs of 1080’s but I thought it was time to try something new albeit more expensive! I couldn’t be happier with the performance but at that price it’s going to be a hard decision to go back for another pair.

I'd always wanted to try a "supershoe".  I'm not an elite racer, so, a trainer sounded like a great opportunity.  AND...it was awesome.  The shoe is ultra cushioned, surprisingly stable for such a high heel stack.  The carbon plate takes a bit of getting used to (the shoe isn't flexible).  But, there is enough of a rocker to propel you forward.  I've felt the shoes have performed very well on both long and short runs.  They have excelled in races (5k...they made me feel like I WAS racing in a supershoe).  I feel they DO propel me forward the faster I run.  They are LIGHT, relatively breathable, and cushioned.  I have not experienced any hotspots from the upper.  Overall, you cannot go wrong with this shoe!

Favorite shoe, super durable, nothing else is comparable

This shoe can do it all. Easy days through speed workouts. My feet feel great regardless. A little pricey for a daily trainer but in my opinion well worth it.

These shoes feel great at any distance or pace!

The cushion is really good also was good for  easy and tempos. really bad for trails tho and I twisted my ankle really bad other than that really good but way too expensive on get on sale
