I’ve used the NB3 and Superblast the same way and it’s been such a great training block. Ran the Marine Corps Marathon in the Superblast as well and no complaints!

I’m almost 400mi into my second pair of Novablast 3’s and I would say I use them mostly for easy runs/daily miles with maybe a few strides here and there. I use Superblast for workouts, so pace versatility isn’t as much of a priority for me when looking for a daily trainer, but it’s nice so I can bring one shoe when traveling or for someone who only needs one shoe to do everything.

Novablast 1 was a legend for me, definitely ended up using it more than my Clifton 7s. Novablast 2 felt a little more stable, but oddly a wee bit too heavy for what I was used to from the 1. Novablast 3 definitely feels like it slaps the ground more so than propelling me forward, but definitely a fun shoe when it works. I'm excited for the 4 when I can get them on sale.

With the 3 I ran 8 hours and 100km with good/excellent results (even though many people here on KZbin pseudo "personal trainers" said it wasn't good!) and I no longer had tendon problems with drop 8 unlike before I ran with a drop 12 and then the roll is excellent even if it took a little time before "taming" them because at the beginning I felt like I was hopping instead of running. This version 4 weighs a little more, but the sole seems better distributed and if they hold the road well this is a very important point.....But is the 4 really that much better than the 3? I'll try it and then I'll tell you! P.s: this is a high-performance shoe for marathons up to 100km, don't listen to the "personal trainer" guys here on KZbin who tell you that it's only good for 10km and half distances........

First 2 runs, 10 miles, these are much firmer than the 3’s. I’m not yet convinced they are worthwhile. I see others saying it takes several runs, so I will given them another 2 runs for about 10-15 miles. Also, there’s deeper outsole grip, but it’s odd, the plastic almost feels too hard, almost sliding, scraping across the asphalt when running at moderate paces. Currently concerned.
