Haven't had them that long. I wish they were a bit stiffer, other than that, they're good.

Overall

Good shoe for anything from tempo runs to long run. I was used to running in shoes with 0-4mm drop so the heel felt really high at first but I got used to it. I've run 2000 miles in 4 different pairs of tempo boosts and I have no complaints.
