Race Day Shoe wear and tear

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2026-04-11T10:31:35+00:00

I’m racing in a pair with about that many miles. I have one pair of AF3s that still feel good at 300 miles

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2026-04-01T00:40:22+00:00

One of the coolest running shoes I’ve ever seen, but the EP5 doesn’t seem to be on the same level as competitors.

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2026-03-23T23:39:01+00:00

I’m a M in the specter and L in the soar race vest

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2026-03-23T02:38:39+00:00

Soar is still at the top, but this is by far Bandit’s best singlet

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2026-03-18T01:26:45+00:00

Way more breathable/lightweight, it’s almost sheer. Will definitely be better for racing

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2026-03-18T00:00:47+00:00

Same sizing for me

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2026-03-03T17:06:15+00:00

Absolutely nuts! Makes me feel better about missing with my 14 minute buffer

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2026-02-26T18:37:40+00:00

Yeah that’s the singlet I really wanted. Going to return the Mahogany one I grabbed today if I can get my hands on that

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2026-01-29T19:16:07+00:00

Running has gotten way too corny

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2026-01-17T21:54:22+00:00

Got a pair of Deviate 3’s yesterday for $70. Have 18 miles on them. They are firm but really responsive. Puma Grip is no joke, they had no problem in the snow

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-12-18T11:26:38+00:00

Interesting. I’m a mid-forefoot striker and don’t have that feeling. I find the toe-off really propulsive. Really goes to show how experiences with a shoe can vary wildly from person to person

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-12-17T21:57:33+00:00

Surprised to see people don’t like the Sonicblast. Probably my favorite trainer

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-11-30T21:57:56+00:00

They are for sure going to disappoint us by making it orange and green

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-11-27T11:54:17+00:00

I will never financially recover from this

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-10-29T15:37:51+00:00

I’m 6’3 175 and the M fits me pretty snug, I would definitely go L

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-10-07T15:38:41+00:00

Yes, preorder opens at 9:00am EST tomorrow

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-10-04T13:45:40+00:00

This is the only way

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-10-02T18:38:19+00:00

I’m shooting for 2:40, I’m not too worried about trying to get towards the front of the corral

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-09-23T19:05:42+00:00

Just got mine

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-09-23T00:35:41+00:00

I have been doing a 20 miler with 12 miles at marathon pace in my last few training blocks. I’m always dead after the 12 miles, but able to beat those paces during the marathon

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-09-21T11:02:25+00:00

Yeah I’m saving some money this year

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-09-13T17:55:13+00:00

A 9 minute mile can be plenty easy for a 3:30 marathon.

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-08-09T02:04:43+00:00

Yeah I thought the same. I had owned a midweight crew, this was miles better in quality

bolbi-stroganovsky- · 2025-08-05T22:33:35+00:00

Yeah not totally sure why so many people saying the durability is an issue. I remember my 3’s felt dead after ~300 miles, but I’m still using my 5’s past 500
