I was outchea looking like melon gelato sitting on a blue sky. 𤣠On Monday evening, this oversized gift box came in from @everywomansmarathon. I didn't get a chance to indulge in it until Tuesday. Next to a literal mini fridge were these @saucony Triumph 23. I've been itching to try some new sneakers, and after doing a test run yesterday, here's some thoughts:
š¢ Lightweight and bouncy: I love the way it speaks to my feet when they land. I feel like they're great for someone who may be a heel striker
š¢ Wide toe box: I am wearing an 11 wide, and they work well for me. In the summer months, heat edema is real for me, especially if it's peak sun or mile 18.89 of a marathon.
š¢ They managed to make it plush but not overkill. It maintains being responsive, supportive, and a great trainer shoe
š¢ I think this shoe is great for someone who is looking for a daily trainer. For me, I love this as a possibly long run shoe. Personally, I need a shoe that will be my ride or die when my lower back/SI joint is being extra needy. I don't believe in things like shoes for plus-size people because everyone's foot is unique shaped and constructed differently. I do feel like these shoes *may* be friendly to a plus-size girl like me who wants to put in over 200 miles before looking into a new pair. Time will be my answer on that one.
š¢ I want to give it more time before I give more feedback, but I can definitely say that I will keep a light breathable sock on with these sneakers versus a heavier one.
š¢ Style and colors are a vibe
I was originally scheduled for a 60-minute run, but after doing my powerlifting competition and duathlon on Saturday and Sunday, my body asked for a bit more rest. I'm not sore, just mentally needed a break. In turn, I kept it under 30, which was great for both my mental and physical well-being.
I've been trying to adjust back to everyday life since coming back to Philly. Non fitness related stuff put its foot in me, but I'm an endurance girlie. Nevertheless, triple marathon training continues. How are we holding up, babes: mentally, physically, emotionally? Let's chat.
