I am looking to get a shoe for some zone 2 runs at around a 9:30/mile pace, probably about 8-10 miles a week to start (2 days/week) and increasing from there. I aspire to mountaineer but obviously need to build the cardio for it. I currently have New Balance Arishi v4s that need replacing. I am 5’10” 145lbs if it matters.
I am unsure which shoe would be best, I’ve looked at the following
Novablast 5 - on sale, highly regarded, concerned about durability
Evo sl - stability issues, sounds almost like a speed shoe
Vomero 18/plus - another good option, but seem heavy
Superblast 2 - on sale, durable, unsure if this is the right type of shoe though
Any help or suggestions would be great!
