The Hoka Bondi 9 is a max cushioned shoe that's one of the best selling nameplates in America. However, over the past few generations, it's become more known for its prevalence in hospitals, airports and sororities than its running capabilities. The first run performance of the Bondi surprised me—it was much lighter, bouncier and more enjoyable to run in than I expected, so I wanted to double back for more. In this video, I get 20 more miles in the Bondi and let you know why it's now a shoe to consider if you're in the market for max cushion.
