I wore a pair of ASICS for my very first marathon, the London Marathon back in 2012. I remember buying the first pair from Sweaty Betty with no clue what I was looking for. Then a second pair from the London ASICS store after having a gait analysis.I’ve loved a lot of ASICS shoes since that first 26.2, and had a number that don’t work for me. For the past few iterations, the Novablast have been on my ‘hits’ list (especially the Novablast 3), and spoiler alert, the Novablast 5 were no exception. I’ve worn the range of ASICS Novablasts since they first launched in 2020 for easy runs, long runs and tempo runs. They’re a great versatile shoe for a (in my opinion) a really good price point! ASICS Novablast 5 Review I bought these shoes in December but in the rush of Christmas and back-to-back sicknesses in our house, I put them in a cupboard and kind of forgot about them (my Novablast 4s are still in regular rotation). However I found them last week and haven’t really taken them off...
