Excellent for long (10-16 miles) runs on asphalt... Jan 25, 2008
By Eduardo Nietzsche ...which is the only reason I bought them. For shorter 3-6 mile runs, or runs on dirt trails, I still prefer much lighter, thinner-soled shoes like the Brooks Mach 8, Nike Waffle Racer, Nike Free 5.0, and Brooks T4.
The reason is that thinner more flexible shoes give you more "road feel"---I land on the balls of my feet not on my heels (Google up "pose technique" or "chi running" if you don't understand what/why this is) so I have a very light, quiet footfall which maximizes my biomechanical efficiency and sharply reduces my risk of injury. Shoes with an enormous amount of padding, i.e. thick heavy soles, usually encourage poor technique such as heel-striking, which is absolute hell on your joints (knees, ankle, back).
This is where the Adrenalines surprised me: despite the ominously built-up heel, they are nevertheless flexible and firm enough that I can still get adequate road feel and maintain correct form. On a long run on asphalt roads and concrete sidewalks, they ARE, I hate to admit, extremely comfortable even though I sometimes feel like I am running with pillows on my feet compared to the minimalist shoes I use for shorter distances or dirt paths. But they are still much firmer than the Brooks Glycerin, which is a neutral high-cushioning shoe---read: marshmallows. And the Adrenalines somehow fit my feet perfectly, especially the heel area.

Very light weight running shoe Oct 22, 2007
By I.B.Real This shoe provides with great shock absorbtion and is light as can be. Feels like running with air-conditioning at your feet.

Great shoes May 21, 2007
By Robert D. Krickbaum This is my 3rd generation of the Brooks Adrenaline shoes. The gts7 are by far the best. They offer great support and cushioning. These are the best running shoes I have found.

Great shoes Aug 23, 2008
By Ken Martin
"martyoz"
My last pair of shoes were Nike Pegasus, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I find the Adrenalines to be lighter and less bulky than the Pegasus, with comparable padding. I had tried a pair of Asics Gel Kayanos in the interim, but dropped them very quickly after developing pain in my calves and knees. Since switching to the Brooks I have developed no new injuries, which I attribute to the adequate padding and support.
I've really enjoyed about 100 miles in my Adrenalines.

Adrenaline 7, We Hardly Knew Ye Jun 13, 2008
By Aaron
"extreme accountant"
Note: These have since been superseded by the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 8 - Men's, a /Runner's World/ Best Buy. As far as I know, the 7's are out of production. I like the 8's a lot, but I will certainly miss the 7's.
Running shoes are a very personal thing; my favorite shoe leave you injured and miserable, and yours could do the same to me. Reviews like this, then, aren't really very useful. Still, at 6'1", 263#, normal arch, walking & running about ten miles per week, this was the best shoe I've yet found. Great fit, solid arch support (important for big guys like me), well-constructed, just an all-around great shoe for my needs.
