Long run for heavy dudes

July 4, 2025

Buy on Supwell app

Been contemplating trying the Brooks Glycerin Max for my long, easy, and recovery runs. I currently rotate between Adidas Evo SL and Boston 12 but the 12 is in the 200’s in mileage and the cushion is bottoming out after about 8 miles or so. Any suggestions besides the Glycerin Max? If you’ve tried the Glycerin Max, what did you think of long-run use?

For more context: I’m about 185lbs and my easy/long runs are about 9:00/ pace. Currently use my Evo SL’s for 6-7:00/ pace but always feel those shoes want to go much faster than my easy pace.
