Yes, the Glycerin 23 is excellent for marathon training due to its superior cushioning, which helps absorb impact and reduce fatigue over long distances.
These shoes are primarily designed for road running. While they might handle very light, well-maintained trails, they lack the aggressive tread and protection needed for technical off-road terrain.
The asymmetrical lacing is designed to follow the natural curve of your foot. Try them on and lace them up; they should feel secure without pressure points. If you experience discomfort, experiment with loosening or tightening specific sections of the laces.
The Glycerin 23 offers neutral cushioning. The Glycerin GTS 23 includes GuideRails® support technology for runners who need support for overpronation.
With regular use for running (3-4 times a week), the cushioning and support typically last between 300 to 500 miles. This can vary based on running surface, gait, and weight.
The Glycerin 23 is available in standard width. Brooks often offers shoes in wide (2E for men, D for women) and extra-wide (4E for men, 2E for women) options. Check specific product listings for width availability.
Adjust the asymmetrical lacing. Experiment with different lacing techniques to find a secure but comfortable fit for your foot shape. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks.
This is normal wear and tear for running shoes. The cushioning is designed to degrade gradually. Consider replacing your shoes after 300-500 miles of running, or when you notice a significant decrease in comfort and support.
While the engineered mesh is breathable, intense activity or warm weather can still lead to heat. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly, obstructing circulation, and consider moisture-wicking socks.
Setup: These running shoes require no special setup. Simply try them on to ensure a comfortable fit. Adjust the laces for a secure, personalized feel, paying attention to the asymmetrical lacing pattern.
Compatibility: The Brooks Glycerin 23 is designed primarily for road running. They are compatible with most running socks and apparel. While they can be worn for walking or general training, their optimal performance is on paved surfaces.
Care: To maintain the shoes:
