MATT’S TAKE

Firsthand impressions from my own runs · Not manufacturer specs

Plush, bouncy and stable, with the versatility for easy miles, tempo and long runs. Even late in a 14 km run, I could still pick up the pace. It was my overall pick against the MEGA3 Pro for versatility, though the comparison was closer than I expected.
