Today I’m putting two of the fastest marathon super shoes head-to-head.
The Asics Metaspeed Sky Paris and the Puma Fast-R Nitro Elite.
Which one is the better choice for your next race 5km – Marathon? I’ll break down the fit, comfort, energy return, stability, and marathon performance so you can decide which shoe deserves a spot on your feet come race day.
I think for pure out andout speed, your 5ks, your 1 miles, your 5ks, Pumisu wins it. It’s just a snappier, more aggressive ride. 10k, I think they come together and they’re both pretty much equal. And then for half marathon, marathon, I’d say half marathon, they’re pretty similar. Marathon though, I’d give the edge to the Pumic shoe. Reason being uh the therma midsole here uh particularly on as you get tired and your form starts to leave you in a marathon and you start to go further back you’ll get more support from this heel than you will with this FF leap very soft heel with no plate whatsoever giving you any kind of support and I think that’s the key in a marathon distance apart from the very elite runners all of us at some point will start to lose form and drift a little bit back.
