A picture of a person wearing a pair of shoes. The text reads, “Not A Single Person Asked Me If I Could Run Fast In My New Shoes. Being An Adult Is Stupid.”
It’s just because adults already know the answer just by seeing your shoes. We have experience children don’t. 😌
Come now, there are legitimately shoe designs that can give you 15+% speed increase.
It’s not all intuitive, there’s some pretty wild physics going on in some shoes
Do you have a source on that?
Last I heard “super spikes” can increase performance in track runners by like 2% and that’s basically it. Most of the rest of running shoe designs are based on weight and comfort but competitive shoe brands aren’t really one upping each other on a 15% margin
The best shoes don’t really increase your speed, but does reduce impact energy loss so you’re less strained and can run for longer. Sometimes it may allow you to run faster, mostly by reducing friction/waste (depends on how you run and more)
It’s not all intuitive
They all have brands and distinct styles, though. And I’m not implying that there is or is not any performance difference in shoes; only that a lot of adults know which ones do and do not. Lotta people really into shoes. 🤷♂️
I guess that’s fair, I’m not into shoes but I could spot running shoes at a glance
Wisdom is knowing that red shoes makes you faster.
Red makes everyth’n fasta. 'dat’s why our vehicles are painted red.
Da humies is too stupid to get this
Yer got ta be wear’n blue when deal’n wit’ da 'umiez. Blue means ya get lucky an’ fight ‘da 'umiez.
But they’re not all red, so we can’t be sure. Still need to ask.
Because we care and don’t want to see you break your hip. It’s okay you’ve slowed down a little, at your age!
I asked one of my coworkers if their ankle weights made them run faster and everyone looked at me like I was stupid.
This is a very valid question to ask. The answer is “sorta”, but only when you remove the weights.
Well can you run fast in your new shoes?
You tell me.
I remember someone at work once losing their shit cause nobody noticed their new haircut.
