IncrediRUN: The Next Generation Superfoam Used In The Saucony Endorphin Elite 2

Raced a half marathon in these. Most disappointing super shoe. Like running on a water bed

Do you guys think Connor asked great questions?

Please Saucony make the trainer available in WIDE!!!!

Hopefully the Endorphin Trainer brings us back to what made the Endorphin Speed so great before it got mutated into “something for everyone.” Not every shoe needs to be “for everyone.” People who thought the Speed was too unstable should have found something else. Saucony found out people were using the Speed not only for speedwork but daily runs too and mistakenly took that as an opportunity to turn the Speed into more of a daily trainer. Kudos to Asics who didn’t ruin the Superblast (yet) the way Saucony ruined the Speed.

As someone who loves the Elite 1 and has PRd in them from the 5k to the marathon, I'm both excited and nervous about the Elite v2. The bounciness is exciting but makes me worried it may be too unstable. The stability of the Elite 1 is one of the things I love about it.

I ran a half marathon PB in my first race in the Elite 2. Now saving them for London Marathon next year, just in case they aren’t released in time!

Is this mattress foam?

The information about this new foam, in this new Saucony model, is that it is even softer than the one used in the Elite 1 model. I don't understand and will never understand, despite all my experience of over 30 years of running and 29 marathons completed, why there is a need to implement softer and softer foam if the shoe is for performance. The training model should be soft, ok, so be it to meet the needs of the most sensitive. But in a competition where you are looking for performance and results, softness only gets in the way. The firmer foam used by Adidas in its competition models (which doesn't even require a full plate) and the gas sphere in Nike's Alpha Fly, making the contact zone clearly firmer (although heavier) due to the excessive softness of the ZoomX, are just two clear examples in the two biggest winners of Half and Marathons in recent years, of the obvious relationship between firmness (not hardness) and performance. In fact, I've never seen a track shoe where speed is everything, have the softness that some brands today (NB is another negative example) use in their performance shoes. I have the Saucony Elite 1, but I've already decided, based on everything I've read and heard, that this new model isn't for me.

Name is pretty lame tbf but thank you saucony for not making it 4 different words with 10 syllables and 3 special characters

The name for that foam... is something

When that second shoe came flying in I was like: „Take my Money“!

Will the Endorphin Trainer replace the Endorphin Speed 4?

does it feel like the Mizuno Rebellion Pro Beta 3 foam??

It's indeed exciting times for car, I mean shoe sales men.

¡¡¡¡¡¡Saucony for ever!!!!!. Like. Happy monday.

👍🏻 💪🏻 💪🏻 💪🏻 🔥

The heel counter looks similar to 1080v11

OK, so there will be Trainer and Speed in the Endorphin line. Both are performance/uptempo shoes. Why? Similar to Adizero line with Boston and Evo SL. Once again, why?

I can feel the excitement in his voice...😴😴😴

That's a great question .......

Adidas Lightstrike Pro foam is TPEE based so nothing new here......

Softest foam I've ever felt. Took them this long for details because Saucony was still trying to secure the patent. That's why there wasn't a name for the foam yet either. At a Saucony event in May, a brand rep had 1 pre-production shoe, not even a pair, and it felt absolutely ridiculous

Um um ehhh eh ah ah😵‍💫

Been waiting for this one 🚨‼️

Uff, this is so infuriating. I just can't stand this meaningless bla bla. So he says it's soft and resilient. That can mean anything. Give me a number or at least a comparison with competing foams. You know x percent softer than foam x, or in comparison to foam y, when tested with a 75kg runner, we only loose z% of energy return after 200km as opposed to foam y that loses w%.

Wayyyyyyy too soft imo

March 2025 it is!!!

feeling stupid to run around with my Ride 17's ...

Is Philo's nickname Doughboi? That would be sweet

I’m sorry but did he say Incredarun?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

endorphin trainer looks like an upgraded kinvara pro pretty much

I'm hyped for saucony now! 🔥

Exciting shoe and foam! Not sure if I like foam’s name. I’m sure I’ll be incredibuying a pair next year. Well done Saucony!

So they told us exactly nothing other than “tpe family”

Wow that’s exciting. Was not expecting the Trainer version as well

Hey man, I forgot this brand’s name altogether, I just had a stroke. What brand are we talking about today?

Well, thats a great question 🎉

Love my Speed 4, hope Trainer is faster version of it, between the Pro and Speed. Hope price less than $200.

Can we take a moment to appreciate how Saucony always takes the time to talk about technical aspects of their shoes like the material used, the geometry and the thought process behind their product design?

So not much more rubber outsole on the trainer. Might feel great underfoot but if the outsole doesn’t have rubber it will rewear so fast just like the kinvara pro. Could be an expensive disaster

Развод на деньги эти ваши elite. Bmai fly в 4 раза дешевле, а работают лучше распиареных saucony

That name is a big miss. IncrediRUN????

Strange, but I suppose that's original I.e Incredirun. No comparison to the Blasts, Max and Zooms of the running world

How do you feel resilient during a run? Sounds like a bunch of woowoo.
