Having a running shoe rotation is a great way to ensure that you are pairing the right kind of shoe with the type of run that you've got planned for the day. In this video, I'll talk about how you can start building your shoe rotation, whether you want to have just one running shoe or whether you want to have four or more.

"I'm just a dude that runs a lot." 😂 Love it

@David_T 2 года назад

Just a comment: As an older runner I've switched to max cushion shoes (Ride 8, Endorphin Shift) for most of my long runs to cut down on the wear and tear on my legs. Kofuzi is right, these are not really 'fun' shoes and they cost me between 10s to 20s / mile on my pace, but for long runs this isn't an issue. They do reduce the impact, and that is important with a lot of paved trails going from black top to hard concrete, which is the bane of most older runners.

I went exactly the opposite way. I have started to do a lot of running in minimalist shoes, hoping this would strengthen my tendons and joints and the small muscles in my feet. So far, so good. I am now in my early 50ies and I am less often injured than I was in my 30ies. "Runners knee" pain has totally disappeared. Unlike Ko I don't run every day, though. Only 3 times or sometimes only 2 times a week, max. 30km. Perhaps 2/3 in minimalist shoes. I get most of my aerobic fitness through bicycle riding.

What a helpful video! Wish I knew this 15 months ago when I started running. I have one speed shoe, one max cushion, and four (!) daily trainers. Now I’m just trying to use them up as I have a pretty good idea of where I’m headed rotation wise -> Bondi, Rivera, Endorphin Speed.

@guhvnah 2 года назад

Solid introductory video Kofuzi. Currently working a 3 shoe rotation. Novablast 2s for the daily/long, Endorphin Speed 1s for workouts/longer runs I want to push a bit more, and SL20.2s (Heat ready) for rainy Houston days and shorter efforts. I won a pair of Wave Rider 25s in a contest, so I’ll have daily runs covered for a good while. Racing shoe will be next.

@aldobega2649 2 года назад

Great video! Best and easier to follow explanation about the shoes rotation! As a new runner (5 months) I am building my aerobic/endurance yet. So all my runnings are MAF. I use 3 shoes (Nike Pegasus, Saucony Rider 13, NB 1260V7) in my rotation. 2 are daily neutral trainers and 1 is a support running shoes. I will include soon a trail daily trainer. My plan is to be patience until I got my endurance better. Than I will start to try tempo and interval days. wish me luck!

Hey Kofuzi. Great vid here with awesome info. I personally agree on having multiple shoes in the rotation. I have a similar background. I used to only have 1 shoe in the rotation for all my running and even used that 1 shoe for my first marathon. Started doing research and learned more about the different shoes and their purposes and starting expanding on it. Fast forward a few years, I have 5 in my personal rotation right now and co-own a running/outdoor sports store where I can share all the info I have learned and still continue to learn about.

@Jimdaewong16 2 года назад

Thanks kofuzi, the information was great. I have been running for 8 months and I'm still working on building a rotation. As an ex-hockey player who is a little large, the Nike Zoom Invisibles are my daily trainers and recovery shoes because I can stay relatively injury free. I just ran 23k without and pain at all. My second shoe were Nike Zoom Tempo Next%, but they killed my feet so I just bought the Endorphine Speed 2 for my speed shoes. If they work out as well as my invisibles, I may go to a racer next or buy a daily trainer, use my Speed 2's for races (unofficial) and have a three shoe rotation.

@legendamian 2 года назад

I have a 2 shoe rotation. I noticed that the Endorphin Speed fits my running so insanely well that i use it for everything, daily and speed. Then i have a race shoe that i do my long runs, long race pace runs and races in. That RC Elite 2 that i absolutely hate now (after the 20k it's not working for me, too much energy lost, no carbon pop) is extremely cushioned so i might retire that shoe to a severly overpriced max cushion. But an actual daily shoe... no i don't have it, i noticed i can run perfectly well in slower and faster paces in the Endorphin Speed. tl;dr: I love the Endorphin Speed

@carlosangalang 2 года назад

Dami, I'm in the same boat. I just want to run everything in the Endorphin Speed! But now I'm trying to capture the feeling I get in the Speed in different shoes and runs. Just picked up the Skechers MaxRoad 5 for recovery runs and I found myself smiling after about logging 10 miles😁

@legendamian 2 года назад

@@carlosangalang From all shoe brands, that would be the last one i'd try, but i'll have a look at if i can try them in a store :). For now it's gonna be that RC Elite 2, the shoe that i started out loving and ended up absolutely hating. But the conclusion is that my 3 shoe rotation would end up being a speed - race - max cush and leave the daily out of it. But i understand that's an expensive rotation where the speed shoe runs burns out quickly.

I've got the endorphin pro but I find it to harsh to go the distance past a HM

@legendamian 2 года назад

@@carlosangalang I looked it up and the skechers shoes (at least the new and good ones, like the max chushion 5) are unavailable in Europe, so no luck for me. The metaspeed sky is probably softer but not a high stack of 39/40 mm, but very stif. I would advise you to try the adios pro 2. The RC Elite 2 is the softest shoe ever, not just for carbon plated shoes but probably also from all shoes. That's why i hate it after 20k, it felt at that point like running through mud, and the carbon plate is very mild in there.

@peterlee208 2 года назад

Novablast 2 is an odd beast. You list it here as a daily trainer, and it is a super comfortable shoe for easy days, with a bouncy, fun ride. But it's also a great shoe for tempo runs - yesterday I ran a 20m tempo run, covering exactly 5k and beating a recent 5k race time! The shoe felt like it was helping me along, and I didn't have to think too much about form. You would think with all that foam and bounce the Novablast 2 would be also a great long run shoe, but... nope. At least for me. After 20k, it seems to morph into a kind of squishiness, and I feel like I'm working harder to maintain a 5:00-5:30 km pace. Maybe I will try it again - so many factors are in play during a training season.

I now have 11 models (2 are trail) and 13 pairs since I have 2 doubles of my favs. No regrets. I buy clearance 90% of the time which helps on the budget. The goal of the future now that i have learned what I like or don't like is to narrow it down to the 4 model rotation--- 5 since I do light trails---love my Hoka Challenger ATR 6's and the Torrent. I don't plan such a wide range in the future. My future dream team would be the Novoblast 2, Endorphin Speed (?), ASICS Metaspeed Sky, and most likely the Max Road 5 due to good shoe, great price.

Thanks for the video :) Here's my list: Daily: Nike Peg 38, Brooks Defyance 11 Max Cushion: Hoka Clifton 7 Speed: Saucony Kinvara 12 Trail: Salomon Sense Ride 4 Guess i swap the Peg 38s soon for some Hoka Mach 4s, as for me the Peg 38s are feeling too heavy (also i saw your comparison video that is convincing me to do this)

@kofuzi 2 года назад

That’s a nice rotation. I think you’ll like the Mach, but you might find that it also can serve as your max cushion

Thanks to this video, and after trying a lot of different shoes, I finally built a 4-shoe rotation that suits my body structure and workout regimen. Daily Trainer - Asics Novablast 1 (i find the Novablast 2 a bit too wide at the midfoot to forefoot area). Speed (Tempo runs) - Nike Alphafly Race (Interval runs; still no races over here) - Adidas Adios Pro 2 Recovery/LSD - New Balance Fresh Foam More V3

I have been using Endorphin Speed for my fast shoes too, and bought Endorphin Pro for marathon racing. After comparing the Speed and the Pro in the long runs though, the Speed feels like a safer bet for me in the marathon distance. The Speed will be taking a "tempo + threshold + racing" multi roles for me, and the Pro has been reassigned for road intervals. The carbon plate feels bit stiff for me in the long distance.

For me: Daily, Speed, Trail, and Max Cushion. Plus, I threw in a stability shoe because I had a gift card that was going to waste and got an amazing pair of shoes for like 9 bucks (Asics GT-1000). All of them have different stack heights and different drops, so besides having alternate applications for various runs, I can pick the type of support and responsiveness I am seeking to try and avoid injury.

@giodc8599 2 года назад

Thanks for the video and the breakdown. Really helpful. I have started running in May and been doing the 5k Garmin coach plan for a month now. This has made me realize that my Skechers Ride 8 is not amazing and is a bit too vague for me. I might want to get something else as my daily trainer. Also, i am currently in lockdown and in Australia so i cannot go visit stores at the moment and have not too many options at hand. Suggestions on a daily trainer that can do a bit of everything? Speed 2 seems good but i have no idea. My other 2 shoes are Skechers Razor 3 and Metaracer for when i do speed stuff. I do like them both a fair bit. Cheers :)

@MrJermson 2 года назад

The Skecher GoRun Ride 7 is one of my all-time favorite daily trainer. After 1000 km, I decided to retire them as my gym shoes. Its been 3 years and it still have some cushion left for me to some gym works. I regretted not getting a 2nd pair of Ride 7. I did not get the Ride 8 as there are tonnes of bad reviews on it. I am currently waiting for their MaxRoad 5. Seem to be a Ride 7 reincarnate. Cheers.

@levandmarthapolyakin-aaron2183 2 года назад

My rotation: Boston9 (with one last spare in a box), Hyperion Tempo, Mach4, Saucony Speed 1 and 2, and NB Rebel2. Just retired Brooks G19 so I’m back to not having a very plush slow/recovery shoe, but I enjoyed that one and would consider an updated version in the future. Meanwhile, some of the above can cover that and perform double duty as many running shoes do these days. My biomechanics don’t seem to have gotten along with very high stack shoes with no ground feel, nor with carbon plates, not that I haven’t tried to get along with several of them 😔 (I’m not counting Takumi Sen7 as part of my rotation because it’s very specialized, mostly for track work) Martha

@OdanUrr87 Год назад

Great vid! I particularly like how you build upon each rotation. I'm currently on a one-shoe rotation, using the Pegasus 39 as my daily trainer, but I am considering maybe expanding to a two-shoes rotation. How much should you be running for a multiple shoe rotation to make sense? Right now, if I were to look at a speed shoe for my Tempo runs, I'd only use them once a week at most.

@msschiaffino 2 года назад

Daily Trainer: Mach 4 & Rebel v2 Work-outs: Endorphin Speed, Rebel v2 or Fila Carbon Racer Long Runs: Endorphin Speed, Mach 4, or Rebel v2 Easy Runs: Mach 4, NB More 2, or Novablast Hills (Road): Mach 4, or Endorphin Speed Trail: NB More Trail I could probably do all of my runs with these 3. Mach 4, Rebel v2 and Endorphin Speed. I absolutely love them. Sadly, it has been impossible to buy the Endorphin Speeds here in Brazil for months... I've put 500+km on mine and the outsole is starting to really show some serious wear... Rebels are also fantastic! I can even do long Runs on them, because of the soft ride. But the durability is an issue.

Have, you ever thought about trying any offerings from Karhu? I currently run in their Fusion Ortix and love it! Would like to hear your input on them

@johnconnor8362 2 года назад

Definetly need to build a rotation. Been rocking the same pair of shoes for almost 2 years. And recently I've been wondering why my knees and ankles are getting knackered.

@elliegrimes7712 2 года назад

My rotation is as follows: daily - Hoka Rincon 2, Atreyu base model, long run - NB 1080 v10, tempo -endorphin speed, Winter - Nike Pegasus trail 2 txt, swimrun - on cloudventure. That said I’m terrible at getting bored and adding in a new shoe just because even if I haven’t worn out my previous pairs.

@MichaelGeesink 2 года назад

One other benefit is that you can prevent injuries with a shoe rotation. You challenge and suprise the muscles in your legs

@kofuzi 2 года назад

A lil late to the party. Here’s my stable in 2023: Daily Trainer: - Atreyu Base Model V2 - Saucony Ride 15 Speed: - Hyperion Tempo Long Run/Recovery: - Novablast 3 TR Trail: - Brooks Cascadia 17 First 3 I got on sale by 40-60%, and pulled the trigger when I saw good reviews on them during the years they launched.

I usually rotate 4 shoes. 2 daily trainer to alternate if the other one is wet, 1 workout (retired race shoe after 150 miles), 1 racer. daily trainers = Asics novablast 1, nike turbo 2 workout shoe = vaporfly racer = alphafly

I'm currently in the 3 shoe rotation, and I happen to have 2 of the 3 mentioned (NB Rebel and More). Still a Pegasus guy for the daily trainer. Probably looking at the Endorphin Speed for some longer races. The Rebel is okay for a 5k. Maybe some day I can rationalize a carbon plate shoe!

@carlosangalang 2 года назад

I still hear the siren song of my Peg 37 for daily runs even as I'm looking to retire them with a new pair of Skechers Max Road 5. I agree with some folks that the Endorphin Speed is the best overall plated shoe, carbon or otherwise. I dipped my toes in a heavily discounted pair of endorphin pros as my first carbon plated shoes tho find it too harsh for distance over HM. Hoping the MetaSpeed Sky on order offers a softer ride. Tho I may still opt with the Speed for my first marathon
