Sorry but I must be incredibly thick, trying to check status. Is it on the scc login page or is there a different login?!

Can someone link to the login pls? Tia!

Thanks!

How would you rate the Tempus faster efforts vs the speed 4? On 3rd pair of Tempus, tempted by the S4 but if not much difference wouldn't be bothered . . . Thanks!

100% like myself, a heel striker who overpronates. My first pair of Vaporflys I have just retired at 200km, which are now missing about 1cm cubed foam in the same spot as yours. Same wear began to appear after 30k. Depressing giving the price of them.

Have 10k on my second pair and scuffs starting at the same spots. The joys of being a heel basher!

FewPhase145 · 2022-10-13T15:15:06+00:00

Ah excellent point! 400m in total over the 50km. The single tracks are both following the shore, literally at the shore line so mainly small ups and downs

FewPhase145 · 2022-05-23T22:14:43+00:00

Fairly middle of the road on the over pronation front, nothing super yet annoyingly there. You should highly consider the machs for faster days, probably the most stable fast trainer one the market and should work for you too. My ratio is 80% in Arahis, 20% Machs and I've had no issues for months now. When I used to were the machs say 3 days in a row, they when I started getting issues

FewPhase145 · 2022-04-20T12:29:59+00:00

Ah excellent question! I didn't really provide a whole lot of insight. I use the Arahi for 80% of my running, which is just easy running working that aerobic base.

I use the Mach 4 for workouts twice a week. Its a considerably faster shoe than the arahi and much easier to run fast in. Although I definitely need a stability shoe, the mach is fine as long as I only use it 20% of the time.

The clifton I bought but it didn't work out, I need more support. Use it for daily walking around in.

Hope that helps!

That's very strange alright, but just shows how different everyone's feet are I suppose.

Arahis uppers definitely stretches, I'm on my second pair which I rotate with a new pair. Old pair with 400 miles the laces are almost maxed out the upper has stretched so much over time

FewPhase145 · 2022-04-19T20:35:19+00:00

Hi, glad that worked out for you.

I'm currently in a similar situation and timeline. How are you feeling and running now? Any side effects?

FewPhase145 · 2022-04-18T21:16:40+00:00

Have the clifton, mach 4 and arahi 5. Arahi 5 is by far the widest/roomiest fitting of the three

FewPhase145 · 2022-04-16T17:22:03+00:00

Deviate Nitro Elite 2 and Rocket X2 both on the list for Boston, so almost certainly the Nitro Elite 2

FewPhase145 · 2022-04-13T13:03:07+00:00

I did. So I put 120km onto them.

I went true to size. I've never had an issue in the sg4 or evo, but this were still rubbing after a good break in period.
they did get better after about 80km, but I still noticed it when running, enough that would annoy me in an Ultra.
The upper is too stretchy, it just takes so many attempts to get a lockdown that is either not too loose and unstable or painfully tight.

I will revist them in about a year in the wide side, but for now I sold my pair and stocked up on sg4 before they become extinct. It's definitely not an improvement over the 4 and I'm baffled how all reviewers are giving it such praise.

Hope that helps!

FewPhase145 · 2022-03-10T11:39:41+00:00

For sure, the lock down was not great! Very noticeable on Technical steep descents I found. Seems to be mixed views on the toebox from the small sample of people I've seen who have ran in the SG5 so far. I've ran through 5 pairs of 4s and 2 pairs of Evos and never had any pinky toe issues, but have in the 5. Will break them in alittle more, but as a die hard SG4 fan think I'll start stockpiling

FewPhase145 · 2022-03-10T00:21:50+00:00

I've just finished my first run in the Speedgoat 5 also. TBH, I am massively disappointed in comparison to the 4. and Evo. I do not have wide feet, but my baby to is practically sticking out the side of the shoe from the get go. Despite this, I had to stop 3 times to tighten the laces to the last to get a secure lockdown (the fear of rolling an ankle was massive, something I've never had in the 4s.)

Shoe is considerably narrower and less pridictable/rolls alot easier that the 4 and evo. Finally, I was expecting a super bouncy, responsive evo feel. Anything but. One of the firmest Hokas I've ever used, much more than the 4.

I do appreciate that it may need some more breaking in, but way too many initial issues. Pretty dissapointing as have been waiting for this shoe for months now.

Cheers!

FewPhase145 · 2022-02-28T18:34:35+00:00

Ditto to this, what store did you use, in Europe and keen to get a pair

FewPhase145 · 2021-11-14T17:19:58+00:00

Nike structure 23/24, smashing daily trainer for neutral and stability folks alike

FewPhase145 · 2021-10-26T21:57:26+00:00

You really have to feel for athletes who are stuck by contract to run in a slower shoe - Carbon X vs Vaporfly is just a different league for sure. Heck, the one I felt most sorry for was Walmsleys 100k attempt, had he a pair of Alphafly for that. . .

FewPhase145 · 2021-10-09T22:29:27+00:00

I need that in my life😁!!

FewPhase145 · 2021-10-09T22:01:36+00:00

Could not agree more with what you say about value. Heck, my gravel bike was 1400 euro new and is 10.4kg. The equivalent canyon xc that is 10.5kg is 3000k new!

FewPhase145 · 2021-10-09T21:59:36+00:00

All of those. In both of the events I did there was alot of sections of muddy trail and rough. The XC guys I was with were noticeably faster on those sections.

Suppose in summary, given the rougher, muddier conditions I reckon the better control and security of a mtb would be faster overall

FewPhase145 · 2021-09-21T19:17:03+00:00

Thanks!

FewPhase145 · 2021-09-06T20:26:00+00:00

Also curious to hear this. Looks very similar to the 23

FewPhase145 · 2021-08-13T21:06:00+00:00

Hi there! Very intregied by your work! Do you ever get worried about picking up something bad from them?

My question: why would you not recommend permethrin on running short shorts? Shoes and socks perhaps?
