I use it as a daily shoe for light runs up to 20+ miles. Some might find them too stiff/responsive for long days, but I prefer something that's decently responsive so they're perfect for me. I'd say they're somewhere in the middle in terms of hardness. Not as soft as the 1080s for example, but cushioned enough for longer miles and handled the pace pretty well too. Please note that they are slightly wider in the toe area. Again this is perfect for my long runs as I prefer some room to stretch out but if you have particularly narrow feet be aware. They sit well in the midfoot and heel.
