Returned to running after a 40 year break. Six months in I decided to run a marathon on five days notice. I got these because they are supposed to reduce fatigue and make recovery faster. I ran sub-4 at age 57 with six months of training and a five day taper. The next day I had no problems running six miles. Nineteen days later I ran a half in these and set a post-high school PB in the mile, 2 mile, 5K, 5 mile, 10K, 15K, 10 mile and half. In these shoes, I run like a different person.

Keep Growing
Whenever someone trains with Eliud Kipchoge, they're asked to plant a tree at his base camp to signify their growth. The sockliner graphics mimic that growth with branches moving forward towards the front of the shoe. The red clay color fade nods to the Kenyan dirt that stains the shoes when training. The font is a play on African trees that have fractal-like patterns on the surfaces.
Energy Return for Your Marathon
Two forefoot Air Zoom units combine with ZoomX foam to store and return the energy back to you, powering every step.
Propulsive Feeling
A full-length carbon fiber plate delivers a propulsive sensation that helps you smoothly transition through every stride and tackle turns with confidence.
Cushioned Ride
Fully connected ZoomX foam creates an ultralight and cushioned feel, helping you stay fresh and comfortable from mile 1 to 26.2.
What's New About the Alphafly 3?
The Alphafly 3 is our lightest Alphafly ever, featuring a slightly wider carbon fiber plate for increased stability, a fully connected ZoomX foam midsole for smoother transitions and an all-new Atomknit upper designed for improved multidirectional containment and breathability.

Significantly different from the Vaporfly Next%, but not in a bad way
Blake754731097 - Nov 10, 2024
I've run in several pairs of Nike Vaporfly Next%, but decided to pay the add'l $25 to try these this time around. They are significantly higher (i.e. a thicker sole), which is not a problem for me since I don't tend to twist ankles, but be careful if you do. They don't have a tongue, unlike the Next%, and the one-piece stretchy top is a fairly tight fit to get on, although it is comfortable once you do. They were quite noisy - lots of squeaking when I run, but I expect that will moderate as they get broken in. I haven't raced in them yet, but they feel good on workouts, although different from the Next%.
Bad noise
