Exploring the world in running shoes
The Skechers MaxRoad 3 has a bit of a complex history. Normally, if a shoe company has a successful model, they won’t change too much between the different versions. Take Nike for example, if they make a second version of a shoe they’ll change something about the upper or the sole, but not both at... Continue Reading →
This is the first pair of Saucony running shoes that I’ve tried. But I had heard good things about the brand before. The Freedom ISO 2 is a neutral running shoe with a low drop of just 4 mm, with a forefoot height of 18 mm and a heel height of 22 mm. It only... Continue Reading →
The original plan was to run the full marathon at Edinburgh, but things change. The cardiologist advised me to no longer run any marathons. So, I changed my entry to the half marathon. Initially the race organisation didn't want to change my entry, but after explaining the situation they did. I arrived in Edinburgh on... Continue Reading →
I’ve been wearing Skechers running shoes for years, ever since I started running five years ago. They were the first brand of running shoes I owned and the GoTrail Ultra 4 is still one of my favorite running shoes of all time (I have owned 4 different pairs of those). But other runners have often... Continue Reading →
I like maximal cushioned shoes, so I’ve been looking forward to trying the New Balance Fresh Foam 1080 for a while. It wasn’t the first New Balance shoe I tested, but it was the first Fresh Foam shoe I got to test and I was curious about it. Every big shoe company has their own... Continue Reading →

There has been a lot to do about the Asics Metaride. That is mainly because of its price point, it costs $250/€250. When asked on social media why this shoe was so expensive, Asics replied, because Nike does it too. Which doesn’t really seem like a legitimate reason to me. It’s like Apple getting away...

This was the fifth time this event was being held and I had heard a lot of people say it was a great race, so I decided to sign up for the 10k and check it out myself. The race was on Easter Monday and it would turn out to be a hot day. Kasteel... Continue Reading →

The plan was to run the half marathon at the Venloop in preparation for Edinburgh marathon, but as usual these days, things didn’t go according to plan. I still don’t have a lot of energy since being on the new heart medication, so I decided to run the 10k instead. The start is about 400... Continue Reading →
