Mizuno just showed up in Berlin and took the number. The Mizuno Hyperwarp 96 weighs 96 grams in a men’s 27cm (approximately … Read more

Delhi’s biggest running event just named its most counterintuitive ambassador yet. A woman who races 400 metres in under 49 seconds — less than a single lap of a track — is now the public face of a 21-kilometre road race through the streets of the capital.

Saucony’s best foam was locked inside a shoe most runners could never justify buying. IncrediRUN, the supercritical TPEE foam that powers the Endorphin Elite race line, was extraordinary by every account.
