Buy on Supwell appHowdy y’all, one of the lessons learned during my first half-marathon was sizing up on running shoes (and A LOT of other lessons, maybe I’ll make a post one day about it) so gonna let go of these two shoes I used during this training block to opt for a half size bigger on them.
Anyways more details on the two shoes I’m selling below. Feel free to ignore the brackets for my thoughts on them:
Adidas Adios Pro 3 - Size 10 for $90: Cosmetic wear on the foam, only 39 miles ran according to my Strava. [Great shoes that lasted me thru the Philly Half Marathon but ended up getting hotspots on my left foot during the last 3 miles that messed up my time at the end. Hoping that a half size bigger will do me better with the 10.5s I bought from the Running Warehouse sale yesterday but letting these go regardless. Other than some cosmetic wear on the foam (see big toe, heel), these still have plenty of life in them.]
Asics Superblast 2 - Size 10.5 for $130: Scuffed on the left shoe’s FFBlast+ due to a very narrow treadmill. Otherwise plenty of life left with only 23 miles according to my Strava [Same issue with the hotspots on my left foot during my long runs. Seems like length is the issue on most of my running shoes now so I’m just gonna half size up in everything it feels like. Still great shoes that probably would’ve done me fine on the half but i ended up feeling “faster” in the Adios Pro 3s so I struggled to figure out the point of having these if I was both faster and as comfortable in the AP3s, finicky upper aside]
Also feel free to buy both for $200 + shipping if they’re both the right size for you. They felt the same length wise to me due to adios pro 3 barely having heel padding.
Thanks for reading to the end and feel free to send me a PM if interested.
