While it’s not as fun as other shoes with more high tech foams, it’s a really great iteration of a traditional daily trainer. - ASICS Novablast 2, size 9, 52 miles: this one was life-changing the first 3 mile run I did in it. It was bouncy but soft, responsive but cushioned.

**ASICS Novablast:** Purchased to be my every day trainer. I've now completed four 15k runs in them ranging from 7:30 to 9:30 pace depending on how I felt that morning. I've loved every single run, they are as fun to run in as everyone said. Lots of bounce, not as much cushion as I was expecting but still plenty enough to be comfortable at high mileage.

Boston 10 after 500 miles

Last run in the Boston 10 after 500 miles. Let's say it up front: this is a firm pair of shoe.

I've now run 250+ miles in a pair of ASICS Novablast 2 and I gotta say, I'm pretty disappointed aside from the gorgeous colorway. Loved the Novablast 1, it's very bouncy, versatile (I've done both tempos and 20 miles in them somehow) and a really fun ride. I was stoked for the Novablast 2 because it was supposed to be more "stable" (I'm still not entirely sure what that means) and after quite a bit of running in them, they just feel heavy and there's no energy return.
