When I reach for it
It does not make the rotation anymore.
What works
- ↑Reasonable weight for the stack
What does not
- ↓Stiffer than the Superblast
- ↓I started getting blisters in them
The numbers
What each pair actually lasts me. Race shoes are consumables. The daily trainer is where the value is.
Price divided by the miles I actually get out of it. A $210 trainer that lasts 390 miles is cheaper per mile than any racer I own.
On film
Do not take my word for it from a page. This is what I said on camera, miles on my legs, shoe in hand.
