Intro: Here’s a quick look at Saucony ENDORPHIN SPEED - SPEED Test & LONG RUN Test REVIEW by The FOD Runner. A solid shoe—here’s what you need to try it on your next run. The full video has much more information.
Key points:
- Testing included a 7-mile tempo run (about 40 minutes) at 5:45–5:50 min/mile (≈9 min/km) and a 19.5-mile long run.
- The shoe delivers a smooth, buttery feel, stays locked down with proper lacing, and naturally sits around 170–180 spm.
- Excels during speed work and sustained-effort runs; not the pick for slow, easy recovery days.
Workout example:
- Tempo run: 7 miles (≈11.3 km) at 5:45–5:50 min/mile (≈9 min/km). Start easy for 1 mile, move to goal pace, hold cadence around 170–180 spm, finish easy for 1 mile.
- Long run option: 19–20 miles (≈30–32 km) at a steady pace (≈6:30–7:00 min/mile), keeping your footstrike smooth and the shoe’s support engaged.
Closing note: Test these workouts in your own shoes, using the Pacing app to customize speeds for where you’re at fitness-wise. Give the Endorphin Speed a proper test run and let us know how it goes.
