Customer Reviews Brooks Hyperion Tempo

My foot had not adjusted well with the newest ghost revision. I tried the launch and revel and they were just okay. So after the reviews I thought I would try these. I put it on thinking no way it felt stiff and could feel it touching my arch. I figured keep an open mind. I have never loved a shoe and BOOM I fell in love instantly. Where have these babies been all my life. Very lightweight, larger toe box and material breathed well. I have ran in them for two weeks and feel like I am floating. Very springy. I feel the ground more than a Ghost but less than the revel. My long runs I felt I could just keep going, legs never felt tired. BEST of all, first time I have had painless runs since October. I have ran in the rain with no footing issues. My pace is faster in these. Is it do to the fact they are lighter or no longer have the heal pain the I was getting from the other models? I do not know but highly recommend trying these out. I where a 9 in Ghost and order a 9 in these. My street shoe is a 8.5.

I am really loving this shoe! I've been running in the Ghost 12 for over a year now but have been feeling like they were too "heavy" for tempo and speed runs. As I've consistently been building in strength and distance, I wanted something that felt "quicker". After a few unsuccessful attempts at trying out other brands, I went with the hyperion and so far I'm very pleased. They feel very light, there is great support through the midsole without feeling too "squishy". The adjustment from 12mm drop to 8mm drop was pretty smooth. The first few runs my calves were more sore that usual, but I adjusted very quickly. So far I have 40 miles on them and longest run to date has been 9 miles. I actually prefer them to my ghost 12's and have been using for long runs as well!

I was excited to try these shoes. They are extremely light weight, however, they actually made me run more flat footed and caused pain in my ankles and knees. I typically land on my midfoot. They are also too wide allowing my feet to move around too much. I could not run beyond 4 miles without discomfort. Disappointing. I have been running for 30 years and this is the first time I felt the need to write a review about a shoe. Sorry Brooks! This one needs a few modifications.

Great support and all but wished for more cushioning wanted that walking cloud feeling. Ah well you live and you learn

I've been starting to add more speed work into my training in an attempt to get faster and I'm not lying when I say that the first time I wore them my pace dropped almost a full minute. I glide into the next step so easily and comfortably, these are now my go to shoes for speed.

I got fitted for my first pair of Hyperion Tempo in January at the local Fleet Feet store. I had been running in the Ghost 13 and prior to that Levitate 3. What I immediately loved about the Hyperion Tempo was the weight and the almost glove like fit on my foot. I was skeptical about the foam sole that in my opinion looked like it wouldn't hold up. I went ahead and purchased the pair and after reaching 500 miles decided to retire the first pair and replaced it with the sharp looking black/red/blue design. I have run distances up to 20 miles in the Hyperion Tempo and it has worked well for me. I know some fellow runners who only use it for shorter distances as they like a little more cushion for their long runs. I love the convenience of buying online, but when it comes to running shoes, I prefer to get fitted for shoes I am not familiar with. Just got a new 5K PR this weekend and think the shoe played a role in it.

Love these shoes! I'm an ulta runner that spends my weekday training runs on the road predominantly. My old go to's of a different brand were discontinued and was thrust into the dreaded position of finding something else. After a few weeks of almost daily running in them, I can say I absolutely love them!! They are actually better than my old shoes. Light, responsive, comfortable but not so much that you don't have good ground feel. No hot spots or odd rubbing. Great shoe!! I'm a forefoot runner with neutral feet and high arches. Size feels true.

It's so lightweight yet sturdy! I bought it for tempo runs but am finding I like wearing it to kick around in. The upper is mesh so you can faintly see what color socks you are wearing which is fun. This shoe is very comfortable.

Lightweight good running shoe but I still prefer the ghost. After a run in Hyperion my ankles were sore as if support was not adequate.

The 4 MM drop takes some getting used to after coming off of the Ghost. Overall, I really like them. Super light with enough cushion. The shoe laces are too long.

I love this shoe so much! It's light and springy with lots of energy return! It's truly neutral and just lets you enjoy your run! I love how this shoe just disappears into the background while running - no fuss, just comfort the whole way through! I'm going to get another pair soon just so I don't have to be without them!

I'm a loyal Brooks wearer for 12-15 years and I've always worn Adrenaline GTS and recently triend the Hyperion Elite 2. I was wearing the Hyperion Elite 2 too often; I bought these to train to give my Hyperion Elite a break...they were not a comprable fit/feel. The tongue won't stay straight, even with the marathon loops. I would prefer to run in an Adrenaline GTS as an alternate or splurge for another pair of Hyperion Elite 2.

I have been using Hyperion Tempos for 1 year now. My outdoor morning workout consists of running and strength training with Camp Gladiator. I love these shoes because they are supportive and super light for activities like burpees or broad jumps!

I outfitted my medical research team as a morale booster with the shoes. We then realized that they're weight and comfort made them perfect for our University medical center setting.

Cross country season doesn't usually involve too much road racing, but our team was heading to a meet with a course that was heavily paved/concrete. The usual spikes just wouldn't cut it without damaging them. I purchased these Brooks Hyperion's for that specific race. My daughter LOVED them. She said they were light and supportive. They will be her road race/interval training go-to shoes.

Love these shoes. This is my fourth pair of hyperion tempos. Light weight and comfortable.

I'm on my third pair of Hyperions and there's a reason why. They are super lightweight for speed training but still supportive enough for longer runs. They have pretty good traction on the bottom for running on slightly wet surfaces. They quickly mold to my feet. The first week running on every new pair of shoes takes some adjustment. They are super cushioning on the inside but still make your foot supported. I feel like I'm running barefoot with these because of the dynamic look.

Lightweight, fast, cushiony! This is my 2nd pair. My new favorite for short run training and races!
