Hoka Speedgoat 4

I used Hoka Speedgoats for this every time I did it & they worked great. you do need a bit of traction / stability for rocky bits.

WHOOP 4.0

I realized I lost my @WHOOP battery too late and just broke my data streak of 1252 days 😭 this probably shouldn’t bother me as much as it does lol

Nike Vaporfly

- Hoka Speedgoat 4 for trails - Brooks Adrenaline for basic road training - Nike Vaporfly for road races - Hoka Carbon X for speedwork I never put more than 250 miles on shoes. Worth it to avoid injury. Ideally you have 2 pairs at once to give foam a day to rebound btwn runs
