Critics' Consensus

“The Brooks Glycerin Max 2 offers excellent protection and comfort for easy, high-mileage runs, particularly benefiting heavier runners. However, its substantial weight and low energy return make it unsuitable for racing or faster-paced training.”

“The Brooks Glycerin Max 2 is a weak option for marathon racing, as its strengths sit almost entirely on the comfort side rather than on performance.”
