Full details

The Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking speed and a smooth, responsive ride for both training and racing. They offer enhanced performance through a new nylon plate and PWRRUN PB cushioning, delivering snappy transitions. A potential caveat is that the aggressive design may take some getting used to for runners accustomed to more traditional shoes. Key features include engineered nylon plate, responsive PWRRUN PB cushioning, SPEEDROLL technology for enhanced responsiveness, and a durable rubber outsole.

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for beginners?

Yes, while designed for speed, beginners can benefit from the cushioning and smooth ride. However, some may need time to adapt to the plated design.

What is the difference between Endorphin Speed and Pro models?

The Endorphin Speed typically features a nylon plate, offering a balance of responsiveness and comfort for daily training and faster paces. The Endorphin Pro usually has a carbon fiber plate, providing maximum propulsion for racing.

How do I know if I have the right size?

There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not constricting around the midfoot and heel.

Can I use these for marathon running?

Yes, the Endorphin Speed 5 is well-suited for marathon distances due to its responsive cushioning and efficient ride, especially for runners who prefer a lighter, faster shoe.

How durable is the nylon plate?

The engineered nylon plate is designed for durability and responsiveness. With proper care and use on appropriate surfaces, it should maintain its performance characteristics for the typical lifespan of running shoes.

What type of socks are recommended?

Moisture-wicking running socks made from synthetic materials or merino wool blends are recommended to keep feet dry and prevent blisters.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Loosen the laces and re-tie, ensuring the pressure is evenly distributed. If discomfort persists, the size may be incorrect; consider trying a half-size up or down.

Reduced responsiveness or cushioning over time

The PWRRUN PB foam is durable, but performance can be affected by excessive wear or exposure to harsh conditions. Ensure proper cleaning and storage. If significant degradation occurs, it may be time for a replacement.

Slipping during runs

Check the condition of the rubber outsole for wear. Ensure you are running on appropriate surfaces. For wet conditions, the textured grip tread provides stability, but extreme caution is always advised.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers a fast and propulsive ride suitable for tempo runs and races.
  • Lightweight PWRRUN PB cushioning provides excellent energy return.
  • SPEEDROLL technology aids in smooth and efficient transitions.
  • Durable outsole ensures good traction and longevity.

Cons

  • The nylon plate may feel stiff for runners new to plated shoes.
  • May not provide sufficient cushioning for very long ultra-marathons for some runners.
  • Primarily designed for speed, potentially less ideal for very slow recovery jogs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Endorphin Speed 5 trainers are ready to wear right out of the box. Ensure you have chosen the correct UK size for a comfortable fit. Lace them up using the provided eyelets, adjusting the tightness to your preference across the midfoot.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for road running and provide good performance on most paved surfaces. They are suitable for various adult running activities.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For interior cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse thoroughly. Allow to air dry completely, away from direct heat sources.
  2. Drying: Never machine wash or tumble dry. Stuffing the shoes with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
