The Nike Air Max 90 Ultra 2.0 Flyknit Multicolor came in the colors of a tropical drink, lime and orange and pink, as if the logo ought to be an umbrella instead of a Nike swoosh. It was 20 years ago today that the Arizona Wildcats won the 1997 NCAA Men’s Basketball title, completing one of the most legendary runs in tournament history. Themselves a fourth seed, the Wildcats defeated three #1 seeded teams during the tournament—the only team to ever complete the feat in basketball history. Even as a basketball-crazy 13-year-old in the late 1980s, I knew that Spike Lee’s famous pitch for Air Jordans—“It’s gotta be the shoes!”—was meant to be ironic. When it comes to the Mens Nike Air Max 90 Ultra 2.0 Flyknit Multicolor pinnacle of human performance and athletic achievement, humanity has yet to surpass one milestone: finishing a marathon in less than two hours.If the color scheme suggested frivolity, race results did not. The shoes cushioned the feet of all three medalists in the men’s marathon at the Rio Olympics last summer. There had been Air Max 90 Ultra 2.0 Flyknit Crimson flashes of sneaker brilliance here and there in the college basketball world before, but in 1997 the Wildcats showed that you didn’t only have to wear the boring team-issued footwear on the court. For the most part, I run in whatever shoe is on sale and feels comfortable, and race in the lightest shoe I can find. But thanks to a combination of knowledge on human performance and athletic technology, we're getting a much better idea of exactly what it will take to break the 2-hour marathon barrier. This past December, when Nike announced the launch of its Breaking2 initiative, wherein three elite athletes would attempt to break not only the world record for the marathon, but the ever elusive two-hour mark — thought by many to be outside the realm of human capabilities — there were quite a few questions. Today Nike provided some key answers. Two of Nike’s Final Four–bound men’s basketball teams got a surprise pep talk Wednesday from one of the game’s all-time greatest players. As expected, Nike’s scientists outlined a comprehensive program designed to bring a sub-two-hour marathon within reach, including fine-tuning every detail of the course, race planning, training, nutrition, hydration, apparel, and of course “revolutionary” shoes. Surely, some will go all sour-grapes and point out that these are not luxuries available to the rest of us, thus taking some of the shine off whatever does or does not happen there, but this has never been the point of the project. Three percent. When you say it out loud, it doesn't sound like a lot. The shoes came in the colours of a tropical drink, lime and orange and pink, as if the logo ought to be an umbrella instead of a Nike swoosh. You half expected the insoles to smell of rum and coconut. Adidas claims the original Boost foam reduces the energy cost of running by about 1 percent, and the weight reduction offered by Boost Light offers an additional 1 percent. That comparison is highly relevant, because the Pistorius debate centered on claims that his springy carbon-fiber blades gave him an unfair advantage over other runners. The shoe utilizes a new ZoomX foam technology that offers an impressive amount of ultralightweight cushioning that's not usually found in the racing shoes usually worn by elites, because energy return is far more important than cushion to these guys — the last thing they want is to feel like they're sinking into some plush bed of foam like a 200-pound weekend warrior. The latest shoe designs have produced fast times and 875943-002 impressive results in international races. But they have also spurred yet another debate about the advance of technology and the gray area where innovation meets extremely vague rules about what is considered unfair performance enhancement for the feet. And while the attempts won’t come at one of the official major marathons or anything, the setting, though certainly unorthodox, should satisfy at least some critics. The latest issue is shoes. Track’s governing body, the International Association of Athletics Federations, said in an email that it had received a number of inquiries about elite runners’ wearing new designs made by various companies. In brief, the new shoe has two key characteristics. One is a new superlight-but-resilient foam that provides cushioning and energy return without weighing the shoe down. On Tuesday, Nike unveiled a new shoe, a customized version of the one worn by the marathon winners in Rio de Janeiro and other recent high-profile races, as part of the company’s bold — some say gimmicky — attempt to break two hours in the marathon in early May. To not only best it, but to do so with a time under two hours means beating that record by three percent. A daunting task that the athletic apparel company is confident they are up to, and they’ve made the shoes to prove it. |
