Sam: The lighter Ravenna 10 with its 1st generation Rails was a step back from the lively posted Ravenna 9. Much like a football team’s long snapper, if you don’t know his name, that means he’s doing a great job. Let's touch on the difference between the Brooks Glycerin GTS 19 and the Brooks Transcend 7 midsoles. A GAIT analysis provides information on how you run, and it helps you choose the right type of shoe for your running gait. The Brooks Transcend 7 is recommended for mild overpronators who need a stability shoe for high-mileage runs and easy, recovery runs.

I wore them feeling somewhat fresh, and I wore them feeling beat up after a 5 x 1-mile workout that morning. It stays on top of that platform for a secure fit and feel as you transition through to midstance to your release point. I was training for a marathon while testing and wore them for all of my runs, except for the longest. The midsole is composed of Brooks’ DNA Loft foam; for the unfamiliar, it’s EVA with air injected into it for a softer feel. Running in the shoe, my legs always felt fresh post-workout, or at the very least, I didn’t feel completely broken after hill workouts.When laced originally, it gave me excessive movement in the heel which led to me rolling my ankle around turns.

The Transcend can be that everyday workhorse or long run trainer you need, its DNA Loft cushioning providing a softer ride for your legs. v=1653860894"}},"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]},{"id":36881106567321,"title":"6.

Like I said earlier, this is a lot of shoe, and that is a positive or a negative depending on who you ask. The Transcend has middle-of-the-road cushioning—not too soft that I feel like I’m wearing bedroom slippers, and not too firm that I feel every crack and pebble beneath my foot,” said associate test director Jen Sherry. Said one: ‘The Transcend has middle-of-the-road cushioning—not too soft that I feel like I’m wearing bedroom slippers, and not too firm that I feel every crack and pebble beneath my foot. Full length, green rubber optimises for the cushioned experience in the midsole, while also improving traction and decreasing weight. A new update that bets on some of the most cutting-edge technologies of the American firm such as the DNA Loft midsole.The GuideRails are designed to keep you moving forward without excess movement, with the intent of protecting the knees. If you need minimal support, I’d still recommend the inherently stable Glycerin, but if you have major needs, the Transcend is for you.
