On days when the training calendar calls for speed workouts, consider lacing up the Brooks Hyperion 2, an incredibly lightweight training shoe that has received some amazing upgrades, making it even more suitable to complement your favorite race day shoe. When talking upgrades, there's no better place to start than the midsole. Here we see the addition of Nitrogen-infused DNA FLASH v2, a soft and highly responsive foam that gives back the energy you put in, making it perfect for executing your workouts. With an additional 4mm of stack, runners will enjoy extra protection and even more bounce than the previous version.

The outsole features RoadTack Rubber, delivering durable traction and added rebound to your runs. Meanwhile, the lightweight and breathable upper keeps your feet locked in as you make tight turns, offering the highly coveted distraction-free fit.

Overall, the Brooks Hyperion 2 makes running faster easier and delivers the highly energetic ride that runners seek in speed day shoes, without the beat-up feeling that can come with plated options.
