Could This HOKA Be the Ultimate IRONMAN Shoe?
We’ve all heard it plenty of times over broadcasts, threads, and stories here on Slowtwitch: when it comes to long-distance triathlon racing, bike for show, run for dough. At the professional level, if you aren’t a world-class triathlon runner, it’s going to be a hard day at the office just to continue to make money, let alone win a race. And with the advent of the handicap system that is now determining IRONMAN Worlds qualifying slots, speed is more critical than ever.
Well, folks, this run shoe is for the rest of us; for those of us who may not respond well to carbon footwear. For those of us who aren’t going to run under 3:30 off the bike. Or for those of us who might just want a little bit more cushion for the pushing.
Enter: the HOKA Mach 6. And it’s probably the shoe that most of us should be looking at.
