Three generations of Ellis trainer: GT2140, GT2150, Adrenaline GT10
So I tried the Brooks for the first time this morning and they felt comfortable enough…
If I compare them to the Ascis 2150s I was using before, they are a slightly better fit for my foot… Despite leaving half an inch between toe and end of shoe on both trainers, the GT2150s used to slip a little more around the heel, the Brooks don’t do that.
They did feel a meatier trainer when running, I’ve only just checked the weights of the two trainers post-run but they are 70grammes heavier than the Asics which I don’t find surprising. This gave me some confidence of their stability properties though.
They were also a little stiffer on the first run than I remember the Asics being but I imagine that stiffness will loosen up as I run more in them…
So far, they seem like a good buy.
