    I have the Zoom Fly 4, good for Tempo runs not much with easy runs, I got it for 110$ so its fine. With that Zoom Fly 5 price point I’d rather get the new Novablast 3 with the upgraded FFBlast+

    Don't normally comment but have to say I loved the 2 person perspective review 🤌 your vids have helped me a lot so far in my training.
    I ran my first marathon with minimal to no training with my girlfriend this year in Edinburgh and finished with 4:42 but have now started training for a half marathon under 1:30:00! I have got my PB to 1:34:34 in a little over a month of Training. So I'm excited to see where I can go from here ☺️ (just a little story about my journey that no-one asked for 😂)

    Shame about the negativity around this shoe. I haven't tried it and don't plan on trying it, but I'd like to try and take ED Bud's view that not every shoe can be soft and responsive like a vaporfly and that Nike actually meant this but idk. I have been tempted to buy the zoom fly 3s though as they're only around 70 pounds on sportsshoes. Good vid despite the let-down of this shoe

    • @BenIsRunning
      @BenIsRunning  2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      The running shoes market is so competitive now so when a shoe doesn’t come close to its competitors I understand why it gets the negative reviews across the board. If this didn’t have zoom x written on the side of it I think it wouldn’t have been such a let down. It’s comfortable and fairly affordable but certainly not one I’ll be doing any tempo work in moving forward

    Some say weight does not matter in shoes but was amused to note the Zoom Fly 5 in your UK 7.5 is the same weight as my Speed 3 in a UK 13 and the Speeds aren't exactly super light. I imagine you have a several pairs of road shoes that weigh less than one of my Zoom Fly 5 (one of mine is 388g).

  • @runfrankfurt
    @runfrankfurt 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    @Ben:
    you say as a positive that it is a good pricepoint because you can use it for easy and tempo runs etc.
    Then afterwards you say one dislike is the weight that would disqualify it from doing your tempo runs in it…
    Yea, ok… 😉
    If you eliminate speedwork from its capabilities (too heavy and not responsive enough) then you have lots of other and better options out there don‘t you think?
    Especially for 140£.

    Other than it being a little loud. It’s a great shoe for racing, and faster workouts that I think will last way longer than other Nike racing shoes. I find it very comfortable for forefoot running. You can feel the extra push from the plate. The arch is a little stiff for me so it’s only going to be used for faster stuff. Also it’s really cheap. I got it on sale for 126$

      @@BenIsRunning Oh I will give them both the same opportunity eventually but what I experienced from the first alphafly out of the box was 'SENSATIONAL' and it never disappointed me. However the 2nd version wasn't. I wouldn't even say it's same as previous version but worse since I can compare now. It's heavier and clunky and it does affect the final lapse time too. The onlything I like about it is the colorway. But I prefer the white proto version more which I don't have..

      Different shoe entirely. 3 and 4 are bottom heavy bricks. These despite being heavier, won't really feel it with how the upper and midsole come together. This shoe will be somewhat softer between the SR-02 carrier and ZoomX scraps replacing the React foam of versions 3 and 4. This shoe is also much wider in the heel and midfoot, making it far more stable. Give it a shot.

    I wish I could return these shoes. They are heavy, clunky, hard and I’m worried I will get shinsplints trying to do tempo in them. I generally love Nike and train every day in Zoom X invincible flyknit which are the best training shoes I have ever had and I have not had any injuries and for racing the Vaporfly Next % which are so fast, responsive, comfortable and also have kept me injury free. I think I am going to have to use my Vaporfly for tempo and then get a new pair for racing when they start to wear out. I will use the Zoom fly 5 for mowing the lawn.
