Yet, my foot has never felt more at home. In comparison to standard runners like my Adidas Boost and Nike Pegasus, the midfoot insole comes in at nearly half the width. One that all runners owe themselves to experience at least once.Īt first glance, the Vaporfly might appear as if it’s missing something. Many people argue their efficiency is considered “ technology doping.”īut if the Vaporfly is wrong, I don’t want to be right. My husband claims they’re cheating (and as a lifelong runner, and a running shoe tech, we value his opinion)-they’re too fast, too aggressive, he says. So began my love affair with the Vaporfly. The clash of speed and ease, force and grace-things I rarely experience in tandem on a run-didn’t go unnoticed. Running at my usual 9-minute mile pace felt good, but when I rolled up the speed to a 7-minute mile pace it felt great. My initial few steps may have been all Bambi legs and headlights (they’re literally shaped like a rocking horse to propel you forward), but I quickly slipped into a natural cadence. I never intended to burn small fortunes on something that simply gets me from point A to B, but after I slipped into my first pair of the Nike Zoom X Vaporfly Next%2, I knew I was a goner. For some, it’s expensive cars, for others gambling, and then there’s me: running shoes.
