Bring fuel 4-5 gu’s or gel’s (even if you didn’t practice with it). Take water / Gatorade often.
Can’t start a marathon too slow. Later mike legs will thank you.
Love that sub 3 idea to purchase! Ya know how I got my last pair? Camped outside Nike NYC the morning before NYC marathon.
Good mix of runners and resellers on line.
I would have rather not waited (since it was lightly raining and marathon weekend).
I think performance base is the way to go...
Haven’t been keeping up with thread lately.
Few questions:
It seems as if Nike is going to milk some more c/w’s of VF 4% FK before releasing the “5%’s” (which to me is such a stupid name. Just call them updated 4%. Very few people can follow how they became a 1% faster).
AJ3857-601 is the...
AJ3857-400 as tweeted out by @Rolows_13 back in August.
Messaged the shop in Spain to see what was up with them (since they called them limited and gave a few day window for release).
They’re saying there are production issues but they don’t seem to really know
Almost bought another pair of crimsons bc I like the color. I’ll wait until another nice cw comes out.
Seemed like 80% of all runners wore the same shoes I were at last weekends marathon lol. Not a bad thing but all my non runner family members before the race were like WOW those are bright...
Ok no doubt. Just tried that code to. No luck. Still a good spot to get em from since their r rewards program is pretty solid. Got $100 off so far since they started it
Oh nice congrats!! 3:16 after dying with 5+ to go is a win in my book.
I thought the update provided a nicer lockdown feel. I was able to PR w/ 2:53. My last two miles were my fastest too (6:15, 6:09). Passed so many runners in Central Park.
Despite my heel being in a good deal of pain.. the...
I also asked her why Kipchoge chose not to wear the FP’s for his WR in Berlin. She said he preferred the comfort of the Flyknit Elites since rain was not a factor. She said when it rains they’ll wear them. So these are $700 rain running shoes lol.
She was quick to point out that Rupp wore the...
Hopefully. I can’t see why not since there’s obviously a demand. SNKRS app would’ve never posted about them if not.
Also, unlike the super limited nature surrounding the London release of FP’s... these are like a roll out. First we see this pair (slightly different) at Virgil’s fashion show...
Between 5-6am. Put me at 14th in line. Employees were outside early on so it was well organized.
In fact a few Nike Flatiron employees lined up on their day off to buy a pair.
Much more relaxed than going to the expo. Pulled up right in front, stopped raining at the perfect time, grabbed a...
Oh man. They’re sold out now. I don’t even know if they had enough for everyone on line.
I believe box say out of 100. So 50 Chicago and another 100 for NYC
Anyone else out there this morning to buy the FP Elites?
Glad I got my size. It was an interesting mix of obvious resellers and obvious runners lol. Very civilized lineup
Ahhh I see I see. Still not very appealing to me. Maybe like a limited edition poster
all showing NYCM support, thank you!
In regards to this post.. I don’t know too many rec runners hitting 30-50 miles per week. Not that it’s necessarily a lot of mileage but it’s defintetly no weekend...
Are those two rings? Blah I have no interest in trekking to UES to pick that up. The expo at Javits was the worst 30 minutes of my day.
What a maze they make it so you have to pass every single vendor before exiting.
No problem, those Berlin Peg Turbos are Fire! Slam Jam ships so fast too. Ordered Sunday night at 9:30est. They arrived Tuesday at 7:30PMest. Italy > New York.
Meanwhile JackRabbit in Brooklyn takes at least 3-4 days to get over a bridge lol.
And LMAO wheelchair Ferrari post.
