I'm nine days post-goal race for the year and easing back into training. Today, I took the Boston 12 out for its first jaunt, an 8 mile progression starting at an aerobic base building pace and working down to half marathon race pace. Here are my initial thoughts on how the Boston 12 runs.

I am going to buy another pair in half a size less, however the shoe is fantastic, light with great response and long lasting.

Where are your favorite run spots in charlotte, i'm always looking for more. The greenway is nice!

My favorite colorway of the year

Short window for recovery protein appears to be a myth, given recent studies (which I'm too lazy to cite here). But love the content and there's no harm in having it right away!

@supwell 8 месяцев назад

thank you! and yeah my general rule of thumb is to get the carbs in right away to replenish glycogen stores and then i can wait as long as 2 to 3 hours if needed for the solid meal with the protein. for me i notice the biggest difference in immediate recovery (i.e., mood and energy) if i get the carbs in within 20 to 30 minutes post-run. that's why i love the tailwind recovery mix - it has carbs, fat and protein

Feeling wise the protein “+” carbs brings me back to life esp on those tough work outs & gets recovery on the roll💪

It gets better as you run in it i about 100-150 in mine most runs are aerobic with some strides and hill sprints haven’t really opened it up in them yet

@supwell 8 месяцев назад

Nice good to know. It was definitely a bit stiff especially in the heel area on that first run

I have to do a runners knot with my Adidas Duramo Speed. The upper looks very similar to this. The heel is lower than other shoes and i have to really lace carefully to zap heal lift

@supwell 8 месяцев назад

yeah this was a tricky one to lace. thanks for the tip

@gorane87 7 месяцев назад

Once you figure lacing it is great! You need at least 20km to break them... the longer your run is the better it gets... really awsome shoe, i love it!

thanks for the tip! i went for a 14 miler this weekend in these and i saw the appeal a little bit more at the beginning of the run. i faded towards the end but it's my fault not the shoes lol

Lockdown was awful for me as well. I purchased normal laces of Amazon and it fixed any issues

@supwell 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for the tip. May have to try that out

Have you ever tried mcalpine creek greenway? It has a great 5k course as well as miles of greenway

@supwell 8 месяцев назад

Yeah I love that greenway! The stretch in the center is great for doing intervals since it's so flat. Just gotta avoid the goose poop near the pond 😂

Like you the Endorphin Speed 3 does feel soft to me. I much preferred the Speed 1 and 2. Is the Boston 12 at all similar to the Speed 1/2?

@supwell 8 месяцев назад

i never ran in the first versions of the speed but from my understanding they had a bit more of that "snap" feeling from the plate combined with the bouncy peba. the boston 12 is less of a quick snap and more of a controlled steady bounce - much more planted than how i've heard the speed 1/2 described

@cesarzoghbi4695 8 месяцев назад

I have the Boston 12, it is fantastic but the last is quite big, I recommend ordering half a size smaller and even a size smaller if your foot is thin or normal, the tongue is short and very thin,

@supwell 8 месяцев назад

yeah i'm glad i didn't size up like i had planned to. the fit is quite generous

@user-hi9yx4hw2h 8 месяцев назад

I’ve owned a pair for a month now. It gets softer as it breaks in in a good way. I’m still unable to get the perfect lockdown without suffering lace bite. Any suggestions are appreciated. It’s a good shoe.

@supwell 8 месяцев назад

One of the other commenters mentioned he fixed it by getting regular (softer) laces from Amazon. Might be worth a try for solving that lace bite for you. You can even switch in laces from an older pair of shoes
