On Cloudrunner 3 Trainers - White - UK 10

Yes, the Cloudrunner 3's cushioning and support make them suitable for marathon training, particularly for building mileage and steady-paced long runs. However, for competitive racing, some runners may prefer a lighter, more performance-oriented shoe.

While the comfort is high, these shoes are specifically designed for road running. For gym workouts involving lateral movements or weightlifting, cross-training shoes might offer better stability and support.

The Helion™ foam is designed for durability. The overall lifespan of the midsole, and thus the shoe's cushioning, typically ranges from 300 to 500 miles of running, depending on usage and running style.

The Cloudrunner 3 typically features updated midsole compound (like Helion™ foam) and upper designs for improved cushioning, comfort, and durability compared to previous versions.

The mesh upper is designed for breathability, not waterproofing. They are not waterproof and will get wet in heavy rain or puddles.

Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Gently wipe the mesh. For stubborn marks, a soft-bristled brush can be used carefully. Always allow them to air dry completely.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing system to find a more secure yet comfortable fit. Break in the shoes with shorter runs before attempting longer distances.

The cushioning may naturally compress with use. Consider replacing the shoes after significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles) or when you notice a significant decrease in comfort and support.

While the outsole provides reliable traction, wet surfaces can reduce grip for any shoe. Run with caution on wet pavement and consider alternative footwear for extremely slick conditions.
