Everyone’s raving about carbon plates and £250 “super shoes” — but do they really make you faster, or just lighter in the wallet?
In this episode, I break down the truth behind the hype. You’ll learn what super shoes actually do to your running mechanics, why they can increase injury risk, and how to know if you’ve earned the right to wear them.
I also share when they help, when they hurt, and how to build a smart shoe rotation that keeps you fast, strong, and injury-free, without falling for marketing hype.
