Saucony Endorphin Elite 2: was $290 now $229 at Amazon

The Endorphin Elite 2 is one of the softest and bounciest carbon shoes I've tested, which means it's both fun and fast to race and train in. Several colors of the shoe have been reduced by over 50% in the Amazon sale, with a wide range of sizes available. It's a generation old, but still worth the investment.

Is the best deal on the speedy Hyperion Elite 5 only available on the worst, yellow color? Yes, but don't hold that against this lightning fast carbon racer, because you'll learn to love your mustard super-shoes once you've racked up a few PRs in them. I know I did when I ran in the Brooks Hyperion Elite 5.
