Mark’s Blog (Nike Pegasus 32)

imageI have been lucky enough to get my hands on the newly released Nike Pegasus 32 and took them out on my 20 mile progression run this morning. As a previous Nike Pegasus wearer and fan, I was interested in trying these out.
This neutral cushioned shoe just keeps getter lighter at 9.7 oz and after lacing up I instantly liked the feel of them.

The new Flywire technology introduced in this shoe runs through the lace loops to give that extra comfortable snug fit and helps reduce pressure on the top ridge of the foot. This locks the foot down which reduces the overall weight of the shoe. This would come in handy as my legs begin to feel a little heavier as I reached the last few faster miles of this run.

I was happy to still get that responsive feel that I’ve grown to love in the Pegasus series. The full length Cushlon provides resilient yet soft protection. While the Nike Zoom Air unit at the heel features air pockets that flex on contact for responsive impact protection. This feature will come in useful as my long run hits nearer the marathon distance.

I will be running on a variety of surfaces quiet often during my marathon training. This shoe offers great traction thanks to its durable and versatile Waffle outsole. I usually need to change my runners every 500 miles but I’d imagine I will be getting a longer life out of these.

Shop online at www.johnbuckleysports.com or call into the shop to check out the latest addition to this Nike Pegasus range. We currently stock the Nike Pegasus 32 in two vibrant summer colours of ‘blue lagoon’ and ‘pink pow’. Black is also available in this model.

If you are looking for a light yet responsive performance from your shoe and are maybe, like me, aiming for an autumn marathon, these would be the perfect addition to your marathon miles.
