Our Verdict

ASICS SUPERBLAST 3

Mount to Coast C1

The Mount to Coast C1 and ASICS SUPERBLAST 3 are both very good long-run shoes, but the ASICS is more versatile. It's bouncier and better suited to faster workouts, so it works better across a full training week. The Mount to Coast is the better option for ultra distances, where its dual lacing system lets you loosen the upper as your feet swell.
