Looking to ease back into the game after a year and a half off. 5k ish to 5 miles max, double as a race day shoe at the moment.

I left off in Hyperions which were super nice. Currently eyeing Endorphin Speed, just wasnt sure if there are any new favorites.

1. The obvious answer is it's different for every person, as fitting is an important piece to this.

2. I love my Endorphin Speeds, and I used to think my Hoka Gaviota was the best until I started running in those Saucony's. Best running shoe I've ever owned.

I ran tempos and raced in the Hyperion Tempo this spring. They're pretty nice.

Saucony Endorphin Speed
Puma Deviate Nitro 2
New Balance Rebel

Saucony is about to release a Kinvara “Pro” which will have a plate in it. Probably will be good.

Speed 2 was a great tempo shoe. Speed 3 is a nice shoe but more of an everyday trainer that still has some good versatility. I wouldn’t want to wear them for a 5/10k race.

You can find some great deals on Vaporfly 2’s.

Nike Air Zoom Tempo Next% when on sale. Use them at Happy's 5k runs.

I like the Infinity React for tempo/fartlek runs.
