2025 kona tech is already here! carbon plated sandals

so who is going to rock these?

These?

Would also be interested in what sox he was wearing; with the flop-flop style “post” between the toes, regular sox wouldn’t work so good

Two PR spins:

Runner wins marathon and sets nearly 6min. PB in carbon sandals.

Runner uses carbon sandals to post time nearly 20min. slower than current marathon WR.

This race had maybe more than twice that of temps in marathon WR race

Still not a world class performance by any measure.

it doesnt have to be. his previous best was 2:26.

so 8 minutes better. go get them!
