I have been reading about how Skechers
is putting out great performance running shoes for some time now and after
testing two of their shoes, I have to agree.
The GOrun Ultra series has received some really good reviews as
well. I was excited when I got the news
about testing the GOrun Ultra 2. It is a
more cushioned shoe, but I found that I could still feel the ground at foot
strike, which I feel is an important part of keeping a good form.
The GOrun Ultra 2 uses Resalyte
cushioning, which customers have reported holds up well, even after several
hundred miles. The bottom of the shoe
has what Skechers calls GOimpulse sensors, or lugs that will provide great
traction on different types of terrain.
While many of my shoes have a more minimal
heel drop (0-4 mm), I found the 4 mm (8 mm with the insole) heel drop in the GOrun Ultra 2 was still comfortable. The shape
of the shoe promotes a mid foot strike as well.
The shoe utilizes a combination of synthetic and mesh in its construction
which I found to be easy to clean while still allowing the material to stretch
for a great fit. The 4-way stretch
material really hugs your foot and feels great.
I have run both on the road and on
trails with this shoe. Many trail shoes
are made with a thinner outsole which allows you to feel the sharp rocks under
your feet, even with a rock plate. The
GOrun Ultra 2 has enough cushioning to eliminate that feeling. I felt that it was very responsive and stable,
never once feeling like my ankle was going to roll, which I can’t say for all
shoes with maximal cushioning like Hoka’s.
On the road, the shoe preformed equally as well providing stability and
cushioning to help you put in those long miles without beating up your body, as
much.
This is a great shoe at a great price,
costing a mere $90. If you are looking
for a great training or long distance shoe, give the GOrun Ultra 2 a try.
