Hello everyone and welcome this is the runners connect up-

up-tempo talks this is coach Dylan Bellis this is coach Rory Monaghan and yeah yeah

and this is our very first YouTube video of our podcast that airs every week on Thursday.

Yeah, we thought today's episode would be a fitting one to also have a video format for you.

So if you're listening to the podcast, make sure you're subscribe to our YouTube channel and if you're

watching this on YouTube still make sure you're subscribe to our podcast how about that

there you go so obviously we've got an assortment here on our table today and we are actually

sitting in front of three iterations of the Nike 4% shoes which were later obviously tailored to the 4% to the next

percent and then now what had just dropped about a month ago,

it's the Nike Paper Fly.

And so if...

The Nike Alpha Fly.

Oops.

It's hard to keep track.

There's so many different names.

Yeah, that's right, that's right, the Alpha Fly.

So yeah, these literally just dropped about a little over a month ago, right before the

Olympic trials, and you know, fortunately we, for those of us that were there we were able to get a pair for free so I've got to personally test them out running them I didn't personally race in them but I would say that half the people who picked him up that day did racing them.

So yeah, we're gonna talk just a little bit about the

specs of the shoes themselves and a little bit of the history of kind of

how these shoes have changed the sport so dynamically and you know definitely the I would say

probably one of the bigger the bigger changes this sport has ever had.
