Positive

377 km (about 234 miles) of trail running, including a 100-mile race worn start to finish without changing shoes or socks. The heel cushion hadn't broken down and there was no sole separation, though some front lugs broke off and the mesh started to fray. Downsides: the low lace keeper pressed on the top of the foot around 52 km (they doubt it is a design fault), and the hard toe box caused toenail trouble on technical mountain downhills. Their verdict is five out of five, a workhorse for flatter races.

Has put 400 km into the Ultra Glide 2 on dirt and sand tracks: comfy with decent traction, though it struggles in mud.

Calls the Ultra Glide 2 a great daily shoe; their pair has over 600 miles and is now a gardening shoe, though grip isn't great on their regular trails outside summer.
