The Asics Novablast 5 is a $140 daily trainer that I loved in my initial testing. Since it came through the office, I've tested some other great new releases like the Mizuno Neo Zen ($150), Hoka Bondi 9 ($165) and Asics Gel-Nimbus 27 ($165) as well as revisited favorites like the Puma MagMax ($180). In this video, I put some kilometers on the Novablast, run it through the lab tests and hit you with my updated thoughts at 105 miles.
