Can I use the Glycerin 23 for speedwork or racing?
While the Glycerin 23 provides a smooth ride, its primary focus is on soft cushioning. Runners looking for a shoe specifically for fast-paced workouts or racing might prefer a lighter, more responsive model from Brooks.

How should I clean my Brooks Glycerin 23 trainers?
Clean them using a soft brush to remove loose dirt, followed by a damp cloth with mild soap for any stains. Avoid using washing machines or dryers. Always air dry them away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing different types of socks. If discomfort persists, consider lacing adjustments or a different shoe model.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
Cushioning can naturally compress with use. For optimal comfort, consider replacing your trainers after 300-500 miles, depending on wear and your running style.
Upper feels too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing to achieve a secure, yet comfortable fit. Ensure the tongue is centered and the laces are tied appropriately for your foot shape.
