Original Hoka Cielo X1 (not 2.0)
I'm considering some original Hoka Cielo X1s. They would be my 10k, HM and marathon racing shoes. I'm running 10ks at around 48 mins and HMs at around 1:45, so my marathon time will probably be around 4 hours.
I'm 6'0" tall, about 80-82kg and a heel striker. I overpronate a little, but managed to run in Superblast 2s, Puma Magmax and Novablast 4s without any pain.
The reviews are really inconsistent regards stability and suitability for heel strikers. Any heel strikers and/or slight pronators got experience running in these?
