About This Video

In this video I’m giving you my 100% honest first impressions of the Saucony Azura and asking the big question: could this be the best daily trainer of 2026? I take you through exactly how I tested it, then break down the tech on paper before getting into what actually matters—how it feels out on the run. If you’re building a marathon training shoe rotation and you want a reliable daily workhorse for easy miles, steady runs, and general training weeks, this is the sort of shoe that’s aiming right at that slot. My overall takeaway is pretty simple: I had high hopes, and it’s been fun to test, but it’s missing that “wow factor” that turns a good daily trainer into a proper shoe-of-the-year contender. I talk through the ride, where it fits in a rotation, and who I think it’ll suit most. I also share my final thoughts on whether it’s worth considering right now, or whether you’re better off waiting for something that feels a bit more special underfoot.
