Speed, Bounce, and Comfort.
My daughter is a distance runner and PR’d by 10 seconds in the 3200. Much bounce, speed, and comfort.

Incredi-ble!!!!
I bought this shoe on the day it released. My first run in the Elite2 was a half marathon. I ran for a personal record and I knew that the reason for this performance was because of the Elite 2! Super soft and bouncy - unlike any other super shoe I've tried to date (I've tried them all). These are special for so many reasons. The incredirun is incredible!!! Plenty of foam in the forefoot, my legs weren't even sore at all. I'll be using these for the Chicago Marathon and Disney Marathon. I'm in love with the Saucony Endorphin Elite 2!

Better than Version 1!
43x marathoner, including 14 Boston's. This ain't my first rodeo. I just took these babies out for a spin and I really enjoyed the feel. I will be wearing these for Boston marathon next month. These shoes have a tremendous bounce to them that I enjoy. I see others complaining of the sizing, but I did not have that problem. Plus if you're running distance you want a bit of space for your toes to swell and expand. I thought last years model, it would feel like my foot was slipping out. This year the overall fit is better from the upper to the heel. I definitely recommend.

Squishy Goodness
This shoe has a softer feel than other super shoes. I love it but it takes getting used. The reason I write that? This shoe will allow your calf to flex more, meaning when you load the front {which what you do in these shoes to give you the push) the rear may collapse more than what your body is used to, leaving your toe higher for a split second. So, mid foot strike, rolling to toe, compresses the foam, loading it for expression to give powerful toe-off. Hopefully you get what I'm saying. Give yourself a minute to run the way these shoes were designed. You'll be happy and FAST!

Cushionyyyyy
Just opened these up yesterday and got 10 miles today with these on at 7:01 pace. Felt really good and soft. Only thing is you have to be careful while turning in these it will feel unstable. Other than that I love them.

Addicted!
if it were slightly wider it'd be perfect, so fun and comfortable and fast and protective. maybe would also like to see less of a cutout or different cutout locations, it does collect rocks

These are awesome
I've only been running since January and training in the Endorphin Pro 4 which I really enjoy. Bought these, wore them for my final taper week to make sure my feet didn't hate them, and then ran a half marathon in them yesterday. They feel unreal to run in and fit me great. The amount of bounce is crazy especially when walking, but actually feels natural when running. Not super stable on tight turns but that's not unexpected. Ended the race with no problems or pain. I'm sure these are incredible if you're an experienced or fast runner, but even for me who is new to running I am a big fan.
