With Leo Manzano on board with Hoka, I was thinking about the fastest ever mile in a pair of Hoka One Ones. So, at the end of my track workout last night, I put on my Hokas and threw down a solo, moderately windy 4:52 Hoka Mile. It was hard as hell. I'd estimate I was putting out 4:39 effort.
What's your Hoka Mile PR?
Sidebar: Up to (or down to) about 6:40 per mile pace on runs, I notice no negative effect on running pace in the Hokas.
Boingy boingy boingy
i jogged across the store in them a couple of times
moon boots baby. On my run the other day I saw a jar head out for a run in his G.I. Boots going probably 7:30 pace. I didn't think that was possible.
I ran a hard 3 miles in the middle of a run in my Hoka Stinson Tarmacs. 6:07, 5:58, 5:49.6
Don't know if he's done 1 mile all-out in them, but Sage Canaday did a 2:22 marathon in the Hoka Huakas (not in stores yet):

. In comments section, he says he's heard of someone doing 4:36 in Hokas.
Lot of it depends on what model you're wearing, I'm sure.
Semi-related... is the "One One" not pronounced like the number 1? I thought I heard from the Drake mile race it said like Own-A
