“I've recently been running in Hoka Clifton 7s. I thought that the Carbon x 2 would be less comfy but I'm pleasantly surprised at how comfortable they are. They aren't as spongy as the 7s but they still feel soft and springy. I thought the Carbon plate would feel strange but I've not really noticed any difference. I was looking for a more responsive shoe for my shorter quicker runs and I'm not disappointed. They haven't made me instantly quicker, losing weight would help with that, but I have logged some quicker times and they will certainly help and inspire me to get out! I love them.”
