Need a 2000km review!

Love the zips!!! Great video, thanks for sharing, wishing you the best with your running in 2025.

5:20 damn, crazy how your accent went full texas ranger for the rep count, pardner

Really love this video, I've been scouring UA-cam for something that hit right and this was it, so thanks so much Luke! I'm gonna run an ultra VERY soon

Dawg you have WEAK ASS ankles. This is not a stability shoe. I bet you can’t even do a pistol squat because the stabilizer muscles in your lower leg are so underdeveloped. Roche played D1 football in leather cleats. His ankles are probably as thick as your calves.

I concur with your assessment! great underfoor feel, quite unstable. What trailshoes have the same kind of bounce and feel but a lot more stable? brooks Catamount 3? Norda 005, Salomon Genesis (Slab?)

I picked the standard terrex speed and the midsole is wonderful. I cannot imagine what the rocker+ plate feel on technical terrain. I just dont like the plastic upper. and crappy heel.

Such a fun shoe but I can only take it in small doses. My rubber ankles have saved me numerous times 🤞🏼

Luke. Cool to see your review. I worked with /// on the shoes. As you mentioned we tried to create a special, new and somehow addicting feeling. Saying that they ride a thin edge (creating them we tested wider midfoot and flatter versions - but they lost the magic feeling ... somehow too stable will feel slow). And as a lot of the things that feel new and addicting you should use them in small doses :). Some points that can increase the range in my experience: use of some wider laces will increase lockdown and stability quite a bit.

Vibram Five fingers are great for stability

I was waiting for this review from you, also really hope your ankle will get better soon. Really sounds like I should not buy these shoes as I’ve had troubles with ankle twists before. Or then I’ll just buy them for fast gravel road running.

Truly an ankle breaker, different sports joke 😂

Couldn't agree more about this shoe. You summarized my same feelings perfectly. Any shoes on the horizon you're excited to try??

I feel the same way about these shoes and hope the Prodigio Pro can solve my problem, doesn’t feel quite as fast but still fast and is sooo much more stable. In the end it doesn’t matter how fast the shoes feel when you don’t get to the finish line.

Great review, thank you. I couldn't agree more. I started running in them late last summer, had a foot problem I couldn't get rid of, so as a last resort changed shoes, I was a big Hoka fan, and bought the Speed Ultra's. On the first run, after 3 months, the pain went I couldn't believe it. I was amazed and fell in love instantly. Then in October I turned my ankle badly and have just got back running properly. In the back of my mind was the question, 'would I have had the injury if I'd been wearing Hoka's?'. However, I just can't stop running in them, even in the snow and icy woods we have right now. I'm hoping it doesn't happen again but think that you may be right and I will have to look elsewhere. Cheers 👍

Need to run more! good stuff mate, hope the ankle heals quick.

The knowledge you have to impart is absolutely worth hearing, the background music adds nothing to your video, sorry to be that person.

Love your content!, big fan!, so humble, so down to earth. Love it!, hope you have a fabulous 2025 of races

Something about the eyelets in all shoes are awful nowadays. The Saucony Perigrins did the same ...... thing. Lol

How are these for wide feet?

Beer mile, now on my 2025 calendar

Hi Luke, thanks for the review. I tried on a pair in London last week - and they felt great. I am not a trail runner - or any form of runner anymore. Spinal Cord Injury (bike accident) has meant walking is challenging (compromised strength and proprioception). I typically just wear Brook Glycerines as often as I can for cushioning. I was looking for a shoe that might help me walk on trails, ice, and wet pavement more securely. What is you sense of the suitability of this vibram sole across surfaces other than trails?

How do you like those Terrex shoes? I’ve been thinking about getting them for dirt road running

Im glad there you spoke of the importance of strength training. I find when im consistently adding heavy loaded single leg squats it makes running up a steep ass hill that much easier

A really healthy wholesome update, keep on running 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🏃🏾‍♀️🏃🏿‍♂️🏃🏿‍♀️👍

Love the update. 🤙🏻

haha I saw that cheeky pancake 😂 Happy New Year dude. Stoked for more Luke content in 2025, you keep me inspired to get after it out there!

Glad I made you work for it mate, will have to tee up some sessions! Happy New Year to you and the fam 🤙

Good luck at B2H, classic mountain race, you'll love it for sure.

Got to like a varied race calendar. Cheers. Looking forward to following you for another year's activity on the trails

Loved the cinematography in this one Luke. I'm also a runner from Australia - Just subscribed and looking forward to following your journey mate!

Happy New Year to you and the family, mate. Love myself a good beer mile. Hope all the goals planned for 2025 are smashed.

Looks epic

Where was that lovely accommodation?

Hey good video Luke! I’m a middle of the pack runner and I enjoy long distance running half marathons and full marathons but I feel like 26.2 is my limit. My question is if I want to run a full marathon just to finish strong and at moderate pace 925-945 ish do you think it’s ok to train for a road race marathon like a ultra marathoner trains? I’m not good when it comes to speed work running below 8 and 750 paces my body starts breaking down when I go to fast. Do you think it’s ok if I just train for distance 4 times week and should I try get my long runs up 23-24 miles at east pace to prepare for long durations of marathon? I’ve hit wall last 2 at mile 18 and I want to avoid wall marathon. I also enjoy strength training squats deadlifts bench press. I know I will never run sub 3 or sub 250 but I would be happy with 350 marathons. I just run for health and to finish distances strong

Love the low stack height. Solid Review

I felt like I teleported to the Grampians & was floating on a cloud then boom ‘hooley dooley’ haha great vid mate!

Incred! Gotta get down there. 😮

Why would one run this when u can walk it to appreciate the natural beauty😅

Beautiful edit Luke 👌

The best one yet Luke 👌🏻

Just signed up for the 2025. I am going to need all the help I can get. Download the GPX file and like you I guess just training on the actual course. Any other training tips would be super appreciated!

"Relentlessly technical" is the perfect description of this amazing trail irrespective of the weather. Great video Luke 👏

What a weekend! That heat was something else. Great work with the drone, some epic shots

Beautiful video. Didn’t even know Aus had mountains. Drone footage is *chef’s kiss*.

Nervous-poop Sara must be thrilled about the shout-out 😂

What do you mean by "you used to max out at 60g of carbs an hour"? Do you mean that you couldn't consume more without feeling sick?

From where is the shot at 0:18? Looks like a dream place to run.

Step one: Get dumped the day before. Step two: Decide you are carrying 70 pounds of firefighter gear on your ultra. Step three: Be called a legend by the announcer. Step four: Have a croud cheer when you chug the whole beer offered at the finish line. Step five: Totally forget you just got dumped.

Ripper story well told, GSER is an awesome event - always! 2nd place all round wish I had a bad run like that!
