Changes

Different runners want different levels of cushioning, so this shoe may not suit everyone. Some runners want a [[MinimaxMaximalist]] shoe when they run a 5K, while others will run a 100 mile race barefoot. Most people find that as the distance increases, they want a little more cushioning to protect their feet from the pounding and to offset a little of the fatigue that sets in over time. You can see from the charts below how the cushioning compares with other shoes I've tested for some comparisons. Remember that a thicker, firmer shoe would have the same cushioning rating as a thinner, softer shoe, but would feel rather different. Personally, I'm happy running in the Faas 100 R for the marathon distance, and I'd probably use it in a 50 mile road race. For longer distances I'd probably use the [[Hoka Clifton]], either for the entire race or for the last portion.
