I've had a two pairs of Brooks Magnums over the last two years. Both
pairs have utilized the Hydroflow system. One of the shoes in the
first pair blew a Hydroflow sac after no more than 100km. However,
Brooks replaced them with the next year's model free of charge. I've
put upwards of 700km on the new pair now and no sac blowout is
apparent. I find them to be a really sturdy, comfortable training
shoe. I'm beginning to get the impression that they've lost enough of
their cushioning at this point to warrant purchasing a new pair of
shoes. Does anyone have any feelings about whether 700km is a
reasonable distance for replacement? It seems a little soon to me but
perhaps this is the norm...
