The New Balance FuelCell SC Trainer v3 is an upgrade on past models and one of the best running shoes for marathon training you can get, with the bouncy midsole and carbon plate creating a comfortable and fast ride that shines on long runs in particular.
I enjoyed using the shoe and racked up a lot of miles in it as part of my training for the Valencia Marathon, but in my New Balance SC Trainer v3 review I’ll explain why I think there are better options on the market, with the Hoka Mach X2 and Saucony Endorphin Speed 4 being my standouts in the super-trainer category.
