The Asics Magic Speed 4 is a plated training shoe designed to offer speed and protection. Priced at $170, it competes in a red-hot market segment with other new releases like the Puma Deviate Nitro 3 ($160), Brooks Hyperion Max 2 ($180) and New Balance SC Trainer v3 ($180). In this video, I put the Magic Speed 4 through a morning 17 mile track session, afternoon 8 mile run and let you know why it's now my favorite Asics.
