The GEL technology is placed in the heel to absorb shock during impact, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on the joints.
While they offer good cushioning for shorter to medium distances, they may not provide the advanced features or lightweight feel required for competitive marathon running. They are more geared towards daily training and comfort.
