[@IvanSoregashi]

He wouldn't have beat 2h without shoes, why are you upset?

[@chronicism]

The shoes didn't break the record, the runner did...

[@xxbeatuupzz]

Saying that is like saying the landspeed record was broken by the driver, not the car. Yes the Kipchoge was probably the only one who could do it, but he couldn't have done it without the shoe. I've heard that the shoe gives you a 4% advantage over other shoes (which, over a 2 hour race, is around 5 minutes; quite a lot, considering the record was broken by a lot less than that)

[@tavasp]

Ghost Bandit no. Because it that scenario the car is what is moving and doing the work. It think it actually the opposite. The shoes are like the driver. Better driver means car go faster, but at the end of the day it comes to runner

[@xxbeatuupzz]

@@tavasp really I'm trying to say that the success is a team effort. Yes Kipchoge was likely the only person who could have broken the record, but Kipchoge wouldn't have been able to do it without the shoes. To me, a runner's shoes are like a formula 1 driver's car. The best driver in the world can't beat an average driver in the best car if they use a Ford focus. And an average driver in the best F1 car won't win if the best driver is using a formula 1 car as well. But it takes the best driver (in terms of long distance running,, Kipchoge) in the best car (the shoes) to reach and surpass the record.

[@tavasp]

Ghost Bandit yeah but the analogies don’t work for the same reason I said. The car is the the thing actually moving and doing the work.

[@chronicism]

Ghost Bandit I’m pretty sure Kipchoge can run a faster marathon barefoot than most people can with the “best” shoes. I agree that shoes matter, but not as much as Nike want you to believe.

I myself am a runner and have been running with Nike technology for a couple years. I have done lots of research on these shoes and basically the Vaporfly save at least 4% of your energy and returns your energy forward. I believe that Zack didn't run that much faster purely because of the shoes. It could've been the adrenaline he got because of them plus the comfort and returned energy. Also, it's no surprise he ran that much faster especially that he ran his last three mile time trial in Addidas

[@sjeffy5137]

You’ve done lots of research and found out that a shoe called the vaporfly 4% saves 4% of your energy. I really hope that didn’t take lots of research to find out.

[@remixed8079]

OK, 2 things……the fibres in the zoom air unit prevent the airbag from “ballooning” and keep the desired shape and low profile. When they use to call it tensile air they were using 40psi and the bags would inflate like a ball, they came up with fibres inside to hold the airbag to the desired shape and profile they wanted, tensile air became zoom air. Next, if the shoes wear quickly (as expensive as they are) just run in them until you wear them out, snap the carbon fibre plate and call nike for a warranty replacement, Nike will warranty a shoe for 2 years from the date of manufacturing so they will replace the shoe (several times in fact), so there’s that if you wanna get “value” for your money.

I’m a pretty average runner (I run about a 1:50 half marathon) and I can tell you these shoes make a huge difference. The first time I wore them I just went for a standard run and it actually felt like my Garmin watch was reporting the wrong times per km.

Lamp Pole that being said I know stuff happens, so for me it’s really not about the 5k time, but when I hear the term “runner” I’d think of someone who is running/ training everyday, and who has some competitive racing experience. It’s not because I have anything against people who don’t have these qualities, it’s just the results from someone who isn’t running consistently would be far too inconsistent to come to a real conclusion, the guy in the video has run a couple 5ks, but since he’s not training everyday and he hasn’t already been in racing shape for a long time, who’s to say if it’s the shoes or he’s simply become more fit, there’s no way to prove that his jump in speed was attributed to the shoes

Eliud did not wear the Vaporfly Next% when he missed 2 hours by 25 seconds, he wore the Vaporfly 4% and that was a specific event hosted by Nike. He set the marathon world record in Berlin in an actual race in the Next%. The next year Nike hosted another special event to pace him in the Alphaflys when he broke 2. Also the vapor/alphaflys are meant to be light not durable, they make a zoomfly, which are identical in design but use the durable heavier react foam.

I'd like to see a longevity test of them, see how quick Zack wears them out if they got chewed up that much in just one run, Wouldn't be worth it if you had to spend a few hundred dollars every months for shoes

[@Simon-bv3zo]

You aren’t supposed to run in them every day though

[@fegsfa8339]

Theyre not shoes designed for everyday running. They are racing shoes

[@aricaccetta3458]

They're road racing shoes, designed for just races. I have a pair of the vaporfly next% which are also considering racing flats but they hold up a little better for training.

[@josecarlosxyz]

tha'ts how nike makes money dude

[@im_skrunkly]

there are 2 types of shoes, race shoes and daily trainers. daily trainers last 400-600 miles while race shoes last 100-200 miles. these are races shoes so they're better for races, not the training. they aren't made to be worn everyday.

[@TRIMMA777]

0:35, vaporfly 4% (pink) was not used in initial 2hr attempt. That was Nike vaporfly 4% Elite (custom version of Nike Vaporfly 4%). secondly 1:34 Alphafly Next% you have is a downgraded version of the custom one Eliud Kipchoge wore. Kipchoge broke the record, not Nike. Still a good cutting open video

[@chrispajak540]

You are correct about the Vaporfly Elite in Monza, but the Alphafly is the exact same shoe as Vienna. Some people think there were three carbon plates in Vienna because of a patent, however EK wore the same one plate shoe as what they’re selling now.

[@EASTSIDEDELI]

a very long time ago I had a pair of Air max shoes with that same air pocket near the sole of the foot and I felt like that propelled me as well. Although I'm sure it was nowhere as light as that shoe. Also, I once went running in rock climbing shoes and surprisingly that was faster than my sneakers. It was indoors though. I also think with a few runs under him, Zack could probably even learn to use the shoe more efficiently and knock off even more time.

1 guy finally broke 2 hours in a marathon. *The Entire pack 5 seconds behind* "Am I a joke to you?"

[@thanos3688]

I'M SO STRONG. LOL 😂 🤣 😅 The boys are like going like him.

[@benwhite7005]

9:44 “8 miles a minute”?!

[@louismontano1918]

xc runners when they saw 24 minutes all out 🥴

[@ajrdrahgohnite9363]

Honestly😂

[@thomasbond5463]

Lol yeah even a 21 is pretty slow

[@gusm4710]

Like I'm a 9th grader and I can hit a 22 minute 5k (3.107) miles.

[@canonryanestes1134]

I run a 15:15 at age 16. You just gotta run 10mi a day and it'll happen

[@goompaloompayjh2uuyg538]

@@gusm4710 I’m also 9th grade, my pr is 18:18

[@aaryangoyal1430]

He is not any guy...he is eliud kipchoge

[@xxoneshot0752]

12:22 bubble bass was hiding the pickles again

[@seanhowell9099]

As soon as he put headphones in i died a little. Performance enhancers aint the move

[@nikolaos3017]

you have to run in correct form for that carbon fiber to work xd

[@masoomkhan5149]

Cut open Jordan 11s or 12s they both have a carbon fibre plate, the only difference is the 12s have zoom and 11s have regular Nike air

[@Stryker-ye7wn]

Masoom Khan carbon plates used are different, pretty sure the 11s and 12s was more for aesthetics not really function

[@nicholaslim8817]

love this channel but clearly dan doesn’t know much about running haha. anyway Zach shoes are the ultraboost 20 not the 2.0s

[@arandomperson410]

Yes, the fact his shoes were worn in one run so much shows a repetitive skid drag, causing friction, and friction is resistance. In the slow mo its quite eveident. But he is a big dude, I'm sure this comes into play being an average marathon runner is 140 lbs to which these shoes are designed for.

[@basketboss30]

No offense to him

[@revan552]

The number of sheep I know who bought these shoes but can't even run a sub 23:00 5k. is hilarious.

[@ontariorail1251]

I ran my grade 7 track and field with normal nike running shoes and took my dads alphafly's for grade 8 track day and the difference was nuts

[@austinndungu9646]

Bruuuuh, your son wore a Kenyan bracelet man. Love that mad respect

[@GoldenBoyOdongo]

Didn’t think anybody had noticed this! Really dope!

[@Spike_Spikyboy]

If it's the fastest running shoes, why cant it beat me in a marathon and just stay at starting line? Checkmate, shoes.

[@arontesfay2520]

0:32 you're treating "a minute or two" like it's nothing at those levels of marathon running but it's huge. There is a world of difference between a 2:02 and a 2:01 or between a 2:01 and a 2:00. Those guys do all kinds of training to find a few seconds here and there. Kipchoge missed the 2 hour mark by 25 seconds on his first attempt.

[@haveatyou1]

Lol, right.

[@ARISTO_Music]

So SCP 096 is inside a Nike's shoe.. Clever foundation

[@sethwilliams6008]

"Nike getting into the running game" bro, they literally started out as a track and field company

[@cadenashworth1753]

So if you look closely at time 6:51 , on his first run there was a huge hill close to the end but on this most recent run, the hill was a lot smaller. That’s probably where the 3 mins off is coming from. No shoe alone would take 3 mins off of a 5k…

[@matthijsblabla2498]

You know the blue line is the speed right?

[@aaroiseverything]

was surprised the carbon plate could bend that much before breaking!

[@BigBoyMemer]

Overall, the golden pickaxe of running shoes

[@medobigposs]

@2:57 so adidas UB20 became regular now! I just bought a pair and was thinking that I'm the king of the city until hearing those words 🙂

[@jonno-_-]

Is it just me or do other people that don’t run get running shoes because they are a lot more comfortable

[@marioelburro1492]

I get them because theyre more comfortable. Casual shoes feel chunky and or feel too tall
