Nike Zoom Vaporfly Elite 2017

[Boogaloo Shrimp]

Took the Streakfly’s out for an interval session today and came away really impressed. No, it’s not faster than the Vaporfly but it’s so light and effortless on foot. It also felt better than a plated shoe at easier paces. Color me impressed.

Agree with all of that

surely the proto af 2 must be dropping soon

Here's my wild conspiracy theory...the AF2 drops in Fall; October to be precise.

First mention of a development proto on the World Athletics shoe compliance list that must be the AF2 ("Dev 18240"; only approved for road races due to stack height above 25mm) is October 2021 and it lists the development period as 10/10/2021 - 10/9/2022. That shoe shows up on each compliance list since October 2021 and is listed just under the AF. If you look back at the early sightings of what looks like the final/near final AF2 proto colorway on racers' feet, it's around the same time; October 2021.

The Streakfly was also listed on the pre-March 4, 2022 compliance lists as having a development timeline of 2/14/21 - 2/13/22 and it dropped at the end of the timeline. If you look back at the early sightings of what ended up being the proto colorway of the SF, they are right in that Feb 2021 timeframe.

Cue the X-Files theme...

UNDSed my first NBY Flyknit VFN2.



I hated the VaporWeave on the OG. The EM on the GR VFN2 was an improvement, but I still am NOT a fan at all. However, the NBY Flyknit option on these just feels ****in’ AMAZING for me!

Like I said, I’m not a fan of the EM VFN2, but this WMN’s cw is NICE!

It reminds of one of the first WMN’s Lunaracer 3 cws.

I think you’ve cracked the code haha, I think a tfxc shoes video he said they may get released around fall time

Also heard a rumour they may even get released in April but nothing to back this and kinda doubt this as they’ve only just released that black and red cw

These arrived today, really not sure about them

Zoom Tempo Next% 2 is coming.

Zoom Tempo Next% 2 is coming.

Did you watch the video? There isn’t supposed to be a Tempo Next 2. This is a wear test model that features the Peg 39 upper. They happened to put it on the Tempo Next midsole but this was a wear test model used to study the Peg 39 upper.

 

[juniorpenny]

Thanks for correcting me. My fault. I don’t finish watching the video. Please ignore my previous reply. Thanks again.

just got boston and NY left to complete that major marathon sweep, eliud the marathon goat

What’s the likelihood he’ll win both? And I’m out of the loop, what’s the reason he hasn’t won them before?

He hasn’t run them.

 

[ZoomXRunner]

He hasn’t run them.

I think the main reason is he has run London in the spring and Berlin in the fall and keeps winning these races.

There is a big monetary incentive to return to the race the following year as the returning champion. This makes it hard to run other races like Boston and NYC.

It would be interesting to know if he would’ve run Tokyo in 2022 if London wasn’t moved to from its typical April date.

The schedule is the biggest factor but I don't know if the monetary factor is as important as the fact that Berlin is generally the fastest course and if you want a world record reasonably you should want to go to Berlin. Then that gives you the first half of the year to have another chance at a world marathon major that's in that time frame.

Completely agree.

 

[DeletedCSaccount]

London and Berlin pay the most for top athletes to run their race, that why they tend to get the big names.

 

[vicius23]

Boston and NY are, by far, the hardest marathons for the GOAT of marathon. While he is clearly the top pick in any case, both races are really different from a pancake flat marathon. Just look at the NY or Boston winners, most of them are tactical masters but not really the best against the clock. Like Lelisa Desisa.

Kipchoge uses to win by pushing the pace in 25-35km to something that the rest can't handle. But a race with uphills and downhills or continuous surges cannot be raced like that. Kudos to Eliud for trying to do the six stars, I bet that has something to do with Abbott being his sponsor but he could have kept running LDN and BER and that would have been fine to everybody.

Those are gross. I can’t believe they haven’t remixed “classic” VF colors or tried other gimmicks.
