2024 heel strikers out there: what training shoes (no carbon, 40mm or less heel) do you like for slow/average days and what do you like (again, no carbon, 40mm or less heel) for tempo/speed work?
I dislike heavy shoes so that informs my choices, but I have enjoyed the Brooks Hyperion 2, which would probably work well for EZ runs or tempo/speed if you want a non-plated shoe. Everyone seems to love the Asics Superblast 2 as well, but I haven’t tried them. The only non-plated shoe I personally use for speedwork is the Nike Streakfly, which probably isn’t recommended in general, and being replaced with a plated version soon anyway.
