they are still on running warehouse.
you guys are all nike shills or suckers. let me spell it out for you one last time:
(i) if anything, they have been made for the marathon.
(ii) despite the arguably currently best athlete being sponsored by nike, the world record has been run in Adidas (Adios I believe).
(i) + (ii) --> not only are you wasting your money, you will also out yourself as an idiot if you show up with these overpriced shoes at a local race.

I too train in the Zoom Fly, as well as the Adidas Boston 6.
All my half Mary's were run in Adios 2-3's, as well as most of my fulls. But my last full I tried out the VF 4% and got a few minute PR. While I think lots of factors played a role in the PR, I think the shoes were definitely on attribute that helped as well.
My question is going forward, my next race is another half, I am wondering if the 4% is a good shoe for the half? I did some research on the shoe before dropping 250 on them, 275 really, but I admit I don't know all the intricacies of the shoe. Seems like it is designed specifically for the Marathon, so I was wondering if whatever makes them so magical at the full distance gets less magical as you drop down in race distance? So the people that are pro 4%, do you swear by them for the 1/2 as well?

Not saying that it is all due to the shoes (I do train pretty intensely up to 120 miles a week for this Boston cycle with tempo, track speedwork, and long runs) but I did PR in the half marathon by over 6 1/2 minutes in the Vaporfly 4% after PR'ing at the Chicago marathon by 17 minutes also in the Vaporfly 4%. We'll see how well I can do in Boston next Monday in the Vaporfly's.

Only in a Mens 6.5, lame
What size? I have a few and would sell to you for what I paid plus shipping.
Thanks for the offer, I finally tracked down a pair, my local running store owner put me in contact with one of the few select running stores that got allocations of the shoe. I can't wait for them to arrive. Crazy that I had to call a store in another state to get a pair of running shoes lol
Has anyone run in the 4% in the rain, as expected for Boston on Monday?
I seen plenty of people in them. I can’t find them for the life of me.
