I ’ ve been buying the Triumph since the models were in single digits. Love the evolution of them, and this one is favorite so far.

5 Tamara
Currently running in Triumph and moving to Endorphin Shift 3 per orthotics provider. VERY happy with Tirumph 19. I 'm a 58 yr old woman who just started running 7 years ago. I have asthma and have never been athletic. I raced in London Ontario this past weekend and ran my 5km at 26: 59 and place 2nd in my age group. Super happy with Saucony brand. It's the only shoe I run in.

The best running shoe I ’ ve used for training, covering speed workouts, tempo runs, threshold efforts, and long runs. I relied on the Saucony Ride for easy/treadmill runs and the Endorphin Pro for race day. I retired my last pair of Endorphin Speed 3 after 450 miles but still use them for walks. While the Speed 4 is out, I ’ ll gladly stock up on the 3s if I find them. These Saucony shoes played a key role in my marathon training and race, helping me improve my PR from 5: 07 to 3: 47. Shoes alone won ’ t get you a PR, but they do give you confidence.

The best daily trainer I ’ ve ever ran in. It ’s so light and snappy. It makes running effortless. It shines in faster paces, but is still comfortable and stable at slower paces as well. I usually get some joint issues going longer distances, but the foam soaks up all of the shock while still feeling firm and responsive. On top of that, it seems to be very durable. It ’s overall an incredible shoe.

Excellent walking shoe and just a general wear around town shoe. It is not a running shoe because it is too cushioned with no push off however, the foam and cushioning is superior for just walking and wearing around town. It does run very big and wide for both length and width.

5 Nikki
As a runner who is not stick skinny I tend to burn thru foam in running shoes much quicker than the average person. These shoes have quite a few miles on them and the foam still feels great!

5 metabolic-coach.ca
As an elite trainer and seasoned runner with a deep appreciation for Saucony footwear, I ’ ve found the Endorphin Pro 4 to offer an exceptional fit that aligns perfectly with the contours of my foot. This precise fit enhances comfort and performance, making it a standout choice in my running regimen. Given the remarkable synergy between my foot shape and the Endorphin Pro 4 ’s design, it would be prudent to maintain consistency in my footwear selection. Sticking with the Pro 4 can help prevent potential discomfort or injuries that might arise from frequently switching between different shoe models. Additionally, it would be beneficial if Saucony considers developing an all- weather variant of the Endorphin Pro 4. Such a model would provide runners with the same exceptional fit and performance across diverse weather conditions, further enhancing the versatility of this already outstanding shoe.

5 Daidai
I absolutely love these shoes! I ’ m prone to getting blisters but that isn ’ t a problem any more with these shoes. They are super lightweight, comfy, cushioned but still give you that bounce from the carbon plate. I feel like my runs are lighter and faster. I font feel any shock when I hit the ground so it feels like walking/running on clouds. I can not recommend these shoes enough! I plan on using these for race day. They are so comfy for longer runs and faster speed runs.

5 Trae
These are my absolute favorite marathon training and racing shoe. Love the Pro 4 more than the elites too. Great mix of comfort and responsiveness with a wide toe box. I ’ ve trained and raced Boston and Chicago in these and currently training for this year ’s Boston and London marathons. I ’ ve turned all my running friends onto them too!!!

Disclaimer: I walk; I do n't run. This is my favorite Ride so far. It's more balanced and a bit wider. Love the tongue loop! Nice color offerings, though I do n't know why we ca n't get a simple navy blue. My normal size 9 fits perfectly. On top of everything, it's also a VERY nice- looking shoe.

5 RachK
Bought a few months ago — used to train in ghosts and those were a bit too neutral, but didn ’ t want something too bouncy either. These are the perfect in between( and are actually cute — rare in a more neutral shoe). I am a distance runner — half ’s usually, but have done a full marathon too. These are so great! Very stable. Sized up a half size( usually do in runners) and they fit great. Would recommend.

I ’ ve tried most of the styles and keep coming back to the Saucony Endorphin Shift 2 w/Speedroll- just wish the prices were better. All the sneakers out now cost a fortune for something hood; yet they have the thinnest layer of rubber on the bottom and zero leather for durability.

Best version of the ride yet.. please no major changes for next style

5 Grampz
The Ride is one of my favourite go to shoe from Saucony. It is a true runners' shoe in the sense that it is the total package; cushioning, flexibility, and responsiveness with a touch of inherent stability. The updates of the Ride see it getting lighter, with improved cushioning and fit. I recently did a 50k rail trail race and they held up well; my legs were n't as beat up as they usually are after a long race. It is a great shoe for just about any type of run including hard tempo efforts and Marathon paced efforts. If you didnt want to spend cash on a plated trainer, then this could be a single quiver shoe for the conscientious consumer. My only concern is that the rubber on the outsole is beginning to wear quickly. Although it is likely an aesthetic issue, it is something worth pointing out. Overall, I believe the shoes will last a long time due to the amount of overall cushioning and I will continue to pile up the miles on my new Rides.

5 Running Bear
I purchased these shoes, my first Saucony shoes, after decades of running in another brand. What a revelation! I was excited to see just how good these shoes were running on the rural roads where I live, and I was left elated. I call them the sports car of running shoes. The ride is responsive and comfortable, and they weigh like nothing I 've ever run in before. I highly recommend these shoes!

5 Jordan
These shoes are great right out of the box. I wear them around for walking as well as running on pavement and trails. They are my favorite shoe and when they wear out I will for sure be buying another pair.

Very lightweight but not sprinter thin. It is good for a longer run like 400 or 800 up. Fits well normally the shoe size I buy is 13 and this was a 12. 5. It is a snug fit but good for a race. I would recommend this shoe. It has had some track action and still holding up well

5 Jake
First off the spike is super light. So far I ’ ve only ran 3k steeple in these but I can not wait to lace em up for a 5k. They feel fast, and propel you forward without being too aggressive, so it is fantastic for distance. Only recommendation is more color ways

5 sforstner34
I bought this spike for some upcoming 5k/10k track races and ended up with huge PR's of 14: 58/ 30: 56 the first two times using this spike! They felt exceptionally smooth and durable for the 10k( much better comfort and energy level than compared to previously used dragonfly's) with a very light feel. I believe these spikes lose their comfort the shorter the distance becomes however, as I personally would not recommend using these in a race shorter than 1500m. Additionally, I have had two instances of blisters forming on my heel as a result of these spikes, so I would be weary of racing in these without sturdier socks/ band- aid for cushioning.

It does run narrow and I have thinner feet, so it's a close fit( maybe too narrow for wider feet) but for running that's what I want. Personally, I do n't care for the super bright colors and wish there were more neutral or dark options( a few years ago they had a black shoe with blush accents and that was my FAVE), but the blue and fuchsia is n't overly bright so that's the one I got. Overall it will be a good running shoe and serve it's intended purpose.

Frequently Asked Questions For Lightweight Saucony Running Shoes

Lightweight running shoes are designed to enhance speed and agility, making them ideal for runners looking to improve their performance. They typically offer less bulk, allowing for a more natural foot movement and reduced fatigue during long runs. Additionally, many lightweight options incorporate breathable materials, which help keep your feet cool and comfortable.

Lightweight running shoes are generally constructed with fewer materials, resulting in a lighter overall weight compared to traditional running shoes. This design often sacrifices some cushioning and support, making them better suited for experienced runners who prioritize speed. In contrast, traditional running shoes may offer more stability and cushioning for longer distances or varied terrains.

While lightweight running shoes can benefit many runners, they are particularly well-suited for those who have a neutral gait and are accustomed to running. However, beginners or those with specific foot conditions may require more support and cushioning, which lightweight options may not provide. It's important to consider your running style and comfort when choosing footwear.

Lightweight running shoes are ideal for speed training, racing, and short-distance runs where agility and quick foot movement are essential. They can also be beneficial for runners looking to improve their form and efficiency. However, for longer distances or trail running, a shoe with more cushioning and support may be preferable.

Choosing the right size for lightweight running shoes is crucial for comfort and performance. It's recommended to try on shoes later in the day when your feet are slightly swollen to ensure a proper fit. Additionally, consider the type of socks you will wear while running, as this can affect the fit and feel of the shoes.

Lightweight running shoes often feature breathable mesh uppers that promote airflow and keep feet cool during runs. The midsoles are typically made from lightweight foam materials that provide cushioning without adding bulk. Outsoles may incorporate durable rubber compounds designed for traction while maintaining a lightweight profile.
