Amazing! What kind of shoes do you use?
Mine do basically fall apart around 600km and I can feel a big difference in cushioning. New shoes feel like springs that give my feet a sproing, old shoes are like running barefoot – no sproing at all.
- pg314 3y agoAdidas adizero adios (the old ones, before they grew a thick sole). Allbirds had a nice shoe they developed together with Adidas, which is discontinued now. Some Nike free, but they have too thick a sole for my taste… At the moment, the shoes I like best are discontinued. Luckily I have a couple of pairs in reserve. You know the writing is on the wall when they are heavily discounted; good time to buy a couple of pairs. By the time I need to buy new ones, fashions will hopefully have shifted back… By the way, when I say fall apart, I mean it literally: toes peeking out and losing bits of the sole. I also rotate the shoes: the older ones are for the easy runs, the newer ones for tempo or intervals.
