New Balance RC Elite v2 -- First Impressions in Comments

I had 6 easy miles (\~8:50/mile) before 3 miles @ threshold, 2 miles @ threshold, and 1 miles @ threshold (my threshold paces were 7-7:20/mile), followed by another 3 easy miles, and the threshold paces are when I felt the best and alive. Going fast is a must to really bring alive these shoes and that's where the real benefit comes in. Overall I was very impressed and will certainly continue to use them for my two weekly long run workouts in prep for my first marathon. Awesome shoes.

Endorphin Pro+ -They're a top tier racer!

If it continued to be available, I'd even spend the extra $50 on it (ideally it would just be the same price and be the v2 though). Something about that weight reduction bringing it into the sub 7oz range combined with the lockdown/breathability of the upper really make this shoe feel a lot faster. Really somewhere in the .7oz weight reduction range doesn't seem like that much, but it is definitely noticed. It could be how/where the upper locks you to the midsole as well.

**New Balance Fuelcell Rebel v2**. - soft, comfy, bouncy. - breathable, soft, lightweight upper. - can’t tighten the laces as much as I usually do, but doesn’t need it either.
