What I find most interesting is the number of un-sponsored triathletes doing great things in the Vaporfly. I expect it in the marathon, but it seems like long distance tri pros are picking them up as well.
Bozzone and Jesse Thomas both with notable performances this year.
Does Nike sponsor any triathletes? Seems Terenzo and Jesse have been running in the VF since it came out, as does Holly Lawrence (she also @'s nike on IG which lead me to believe she's getting something from them).
I got a pair off Runningwarehouse and got 15% off. Ran marathons in Jan and Feb that both were 6 minutes faster than my PR and 10 minutes faster than last years Boston time. Obviously it's not all the shoe, but I really like it. I also haven't felt as torn up after the marathons.
At least according to Jesse's strava - he's in the zoom fly - the cheaper one - the ST review actually liked this shoe more. Hard to tell the differences even on Nike's website. Anyways - for what it's worth.
Cam Brown was also in VaporFly 4% or Zoom Fly as well...
EDIT - looks like Jesse races in Vaporfly and trains in Zoom Fly...so apologies!
