The Glycerin is my favorite Brooks shoe. I have decided to keep it in my rotation and I will continue to buy the previous year’s models as they go on sale. I got my 20’s for $80 and I look forward to getting the 21’s when they come on sale. They are very comfortable and they will last a lot of miles. I feel that I truly got a great value for this shoe that will probably get around 700-800 miles of wear. Great review of the Brooks line.

@vetzaaak 2 ай бұрын

Would you recommend the Glycerin 21 for a 3:30ish marathon? I can't really justify spending super shoe money, so I'm hoping to find a comfy and affordable alternative that won't slow me down too much.

@@drewman747 I guess it also depends on your weight, your personal preference, foot shape, running technique/biomechanics, etc… I’m giving the Adizero SL2 a try. Seems like it might offer the right combination for me in terms of weight, energy return, support, cushion,…and its a bit cheaper than the Glycerin too.

Ever since I got into running I’ve always stayed with Brooks. As someone with flat feet they’re extremely comfortable and I couldn’t see myself going to any other brand. I came to this video because I’m trying to find a Brooks shoe that’s good for people with flat feet but also good for marathon training/racing since I’ll be doing one in October. Currently I have the Adrenaline 23’s & though I’ve stuck with that model for awhile now I’ve also tried looking at others like the Glycerin Stealthfit or something else

Ben Parkes is correct when it comes to the Hyperion lineup. Do NOT wear them every day but do leave it be for 48 hours. I have an OG Hyperion tempo ($ 65.00 sale) and I learned the hard way about them when I bought my first pair.

I currently own three pairs of Adrenalines. Two of them the laces are the perfect length. But for one of them, the laces are way too short. I'll need to change the laces out. Not sure why they have such inconsistency with their laces. But I love the shoe itself!

How’s the editing for Sarah’s video(s) going? That’s me being hopeful adding the “s” that it’ll be more than one! You mentioned she was going to start posting again, starting with the vlogs of her recent races but I haven’t seen anything post to her channel yet. I love your videos, but I really miss her badass woman ultra runner content. I am slowly increasing my distance with my eye on ultras in the future and finding her videos when she first started her channel helped get me into running.

I love the Glycerin 20 Neutral--for those looking for a bargain, the 20s are still out there for very reasonable prices! I actually wear them for racing as well as training. I like how quickly I recover from my long runs from them. I used to wear the Adrenalines, but I found them too rigid--I don't really need a stability shoe, I guess. The Ghosts didn't offer enough support for me.

@johndixon557 8 күн бұрын

Great video. I'm new to running I'm on week 15 on coach to half marathon 😅 week 12 I did a 14 mile run. Each week I do 2 x 8/10, 1 x 5 and 1 x 2.5 sprint. I do a monthly big run last one being my 14, next month I'll just go with what I feel. I use Adrenaline gts 23. On my big run I get a bit of runners knee towards the end and depending on gradient. Today I added glycerin gts 21 into my rotation and to use for my "longer" runs for extra cushioning. Watching your video I'm unsure now cuz many say say it's more of a long running shoe uve said more short recovery? Am I reading too much into it ? 😅

When i got my new shoes at the store, i slipped in the ghost 15s, and it felt very good. Did not regret buying them. Hold up a long time. Over 300kms done in them, and you dont really see it. Even the sole seems untouched even with my weight >100kg on it

@MrSeedi76 3 ай бұрын

I started running at around 103 kg (now down to 90) and the Brooks Ghost as well as Divide 4 are perfect for heavy runners. I once tried a NB fresh foam X 840 which was way too mushy for my weight. But I also love my old Asics J33.

Very nice with a Brooks comparison. Years ago I ran a lot in Brooks shoes both road and trail. But they somehow fell behind many other brands. Their current high drop shoes doesn't work that good for me and their midsoles just felt so old fashioned.The Glycerin looks pretty interesting but that 10 mm drop...not so interesting again

@EdGennero Ай бұрын

Question for you, when you’re saying the Glycerin isn’t good for faster paces, are you talking about a specific fast pace? I’m a new runner, only running for a year, and my 5k pace is around 9:30. Because I’m thinking your easy run may be my mile pace 😂

And don't like high heels shoes. Drop about 6mm is for me. 12mm is like running downhill on flat surface. My nails get blacked too. So some specs are really important. We are not same anatomically. And we have cold winter...🇫🇮.
