On Cloudrunner 2

A supportive, budget-friendlier On daily trainer with a wide base and gentle guidance elements rather than a firm medial post. Helion foam and CloudTec pods give a moderate, slightly firm ride that favors durability over excitement. A sensible pick for newer runners who want light support.
