47. “Severance for Runners,” 5 Worst Shoe Updates, & Saucony Hurricane 24

Tuesday, April 8, 2025 • Duration 39:07

The useful The Size 15 Runner uses his expertise to usefully present the top 5 most useless shoe updates (2:42); he undergoes the severely controversial Severance procedure to sever his relationship with running (15:04); and he shares his whirlwind of emotions on the Saucony Hurricane 24 (27:09).

Whether it’s referring to the number of partners in a steaming hot lovemaking session, or scoops of ice cream on a hot summer day, two is always better than one. Case in point: The Hurricane pairs PWRRUN PB with PWRRUN for quite the enjoyable ride.

Severance for Runners — Lumon Industries is proud to introduce an innovative new procedure for those runners who have a love/hate relationship with the sport. Most of the side effects are harmless…mostly.

Unfortunately, The Size 15 Runner is here to talk about the horrendous shoe updates over the past year—updates that do not enhance the shoe in any noticeable or meaningful way, and do not elevate the experience of running in the pair.

Wednesday, December 11, 2024 • Duration 43:32

The Size 15 Runner wears a blindfold and tries to determine if running shoe love is blind as he launches a new season of Netflix’s “Shoe Love is Blind” (2:21); he questions the question of whether running shoe colorways actually matter and what color preferences say about runners (15:25); and he takes it to the max as he reviews the max-cushioned, nitrogen-infused Brooks Glycerin Max (29:50).

Brooks Glycerin Max — With the exception of its weight, the Glycerin Max is a huge (pun intended) upgrade from the regular Glycerin in every category. With its unique DNA Tuned midsole and one-of-a-kind looks, the Glycerin Max isn’t just another max cushion shoe. It’s one of the best, most fun, and stylish shoes of the year, in any category (spoiler alert).
