"This is the model I use every day. It's super comfortable and has great cushioning thanks to the FuelCell foam, which is soft and bouncy. I use it for endurance training, as well as for sessions where I want to add a bit of rhythm. It's a really dynamic model because it has a carbon plate, which gives energy feedback and that sensation of rocking forward. "

"The SuperComp Pacer: I use it more for shorter, more rhythmic sessions like nature fartleks, VMA sessions on the track, or even PPG sessions since this is training where you need lightness and dynamism. I like the way it feels. You feel close to the ground, the support is top-notch and it also has a carbon plate running the length of the sole. "
New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Elite V3

"It's the jewel of the New Balance range: the SuperComp Elite V3. It's a model we're going to use for road races. Personally, I do a little less of that, but I use it more on long sessions where I'm going to suffer. Shock absorption is excellent, and the foam is soft and super-comfortable for a performance model like this. There's also a carbon plate that accentuates the feeling of dynamism and propulsion. Even though the sole is quite thick, you get a good feel for the ground and a really interesting return. "
