Altra Timp 5 review -- from the perspective of a Hybrid trainer who runs races ranging from 1 mile to 50K. #altra #timp #trailrunningshoes #trailrunning #rucking
Hey Ryan! New subscriber here! I've also ran in the Altra Timp 5's and found them to be very good and better than the new Altra Experience Wild, but I also found myself wanting to run more in the Topo MTN Racer 5 (5mm drop) or Topo Pursuit 2 (0mm drop). That said, I feel that the Timp 5 outsole and midsole are very good overall though I did notice that the upper retains water inside the shoe (after getting it wet via a stream crossing) which may be an issue for some. I'll be interesting to compare the Timp 5 with the up-and-coming Olympus 6 considering that the Timp 5 has the "better" EGOMax midsole. Anyways, great in-depth review and feedback! Cheers!!!
It actually feels like I know more about the shoe, unlike many other RU-vid reviews. I am really interested to see what the future brings to this channel.
Yo! Fellow GRT. Love it. I've always did events in Lone Peaks - thoughts on TIMP vs. now that LP 7s and 8s are a little bit different than the legendary 5s and 6s? LOL nvm - addressed at 8:45
