The Asics Novablast 5 is a cushioned everyday running shoe designed to offer comfort and versatility. Priced at $140, it competes with shoes like the Nike Pegasus 41 ($140) and Saucony Ride 17 ($140). In this video, I give an overview of the Novablast, take it out for some miles and let you know my thoughts.
If you pick up any of the shoes mentioned, make sure to use my Running Warehouse link to support the channel:
