### Runner · male runner — 6/10 (2026-10-18)

Ho provato le Mizuno Wave Rider per una corsa di 10 km non competitiva. La scarpa mi è sembrata più o meno a posto, ma ho riscontrato una certa impedenza e una propulsione in avanti non particolarmente efficace; la spinta sembrava quasi perpendicolare al piede. Inoltre la protezione, cioè l'ammortizzazione, non era così buona come quella di una Asics che ho usato in passato. Per ora non ho ancora deciso se cambiarla, devo fare ulteriori ricerche sul rapporto prestazioni‑prezzo.
