I just hit 100 miles in the Mount to Coast R1 running shoes, and in this video, I’m sharing my first impressions, durability test, and why these shoes might change the game for runners tired of replacing shoes every 300–500 miles.

Did you know ultrarunner Justin Montikue put 854 miles on a single pair of R1’s in one race? That blew my mind. After testing them myself, here’s what I found:

✅ Super lightweight (only 8.5 oz) but still well-cushioned
✅ Breathable upper + roomy toe box
✅ Adjustable fit for swelling during long runs
✅ Easy on/off design for ultrarunners
✅ Holding up strong after 100 miles with very little wear

At $160, these might be one of the best-value shoes for both marathoners and ultrarunners. While they aren’t the flashiest design, they deliver where it matters most: comfort, durability, and performance.

👉 Watch till the end to hear whether I recommend them, and let me know in the comments if you’ve tried the Mount to Coast R1’s!
