Y’all… Unless you’re an Olympian, it’s not your shoes that are keeping you from hitting your time goals. 99.9% of all of us would be better off focusing on our sleep, diet, and nailing our volume and workouts.

My favorite example of this is in cycling. Buying a 15k carbon fiber bike, to save 5 pounds over a 3k aluminum bike when they’re overweight. They could spend 10k on a personal trainer for a year and be way ahead.
Yeah… This is a very blatant case of marketing being pushed as “facts” by a magazine paid to advertise.
Consume.It’s very cool and it has no effects on kids working in Bangladesh or the climate. Believe us, Nike said so
I was totally looking for the Nike ad on the same page.
I got the vapor fly 2s for like 60% off so that’s what I wear. I’m not a crazy serious runner, I just wanna be comfy 🤷♂️

I started training more regularly on the big max stack cushioned shoes and i think i’m starting to get weird pains and sore spots i’ve never had before when i was running only racing flats
The max stack carbon shoes are good for race days but i think there might be some truth in the warnings about relying on them too much in training
