I have a marathon coming up this Saturday, and so I decided to do a threshold workout to test the two shoes to see what shoe I want to run the marathon in. Now that I’ve done the comparison, I’m glad I did this workout! Comment below what your favourite marathon racing shoe is!

I only have the alpha fly but now I'm second guessing if I should even wear it for the marathon as I'm only aiming for a sub4. Not fast enough for super shoes but I like wearing them for intervals and it does have that placebo effect for me feeling faster and using them for a special occasion like running a marathon. 😊
Second comment I have the dynafish and it is what I'm leaning towards using for the marathon, just need a fresh pair
Great Vid. I'm keen to see what you think of the Heartrate Monitor as personally I did see a much more accurate/consistency in my readings than just the pace 3 itself. Plus your thoughts on the new purchases hopefully in an upcoming video.
Any thoughts on the Chinese branded shoes?
Prefer Metaspeed Sky or Endorphin Elite 2 over the Alphafly 3. AF3 seems blocky and makes a real noise… you know when someone’s wearing them long before you see them 😂
I absolutely love my dynafish xiaonians. Unbelievable performance to price ratio.
It'd be interesting to see your heart rate data on runs at the same pace with the carbon vs noncarbon shoes
