Looks like she has the carbon plated Nike Distance Spike in the 5000m at Melbourne. Definitely not a current shoe and looked awfully close to the sole Muir has. She was bouncing around at the start line in them.
Maybe someone with some technical skills can get a picture.
So what will Nike do to keep normal people from being able to buy them on the limited release to meet the reauirements? Will they secretly buy them up at release using third party people? Will they release them to some obscure store to make sure no one gets these shoes?

I’m not critical. I actually have been waiting for a long time to get my hands on those shoes. My issues are the way Nike plays games. Will they put those spikes on their Nike plus site, will they send them to some secret store then buy them up to keep them from going out?
I really want a pair of those spikes. Nike played games with their LT4 Spike flats and never could get a pair of them last summer. I have a feeling no one will get their hands on these spikes till after the Olympics.
Nike will play a stupid game of release then have people inside buy them up to comply with the requirements.
Have you seen the 10k/ Half Marathon Zoom X carbon plated shoes that have less stack height that the next percent? I got a pic of those today and they were ridiculous looking.
