Done Spartan trifecta and 2extra sprints, one half mudder, and now tomorrow my fist rugged maniac. My favorite race ever was called battlefrog and no longer exists:( . I had the Solomon cross 3 but just went through them after those races and now bought the Spartan craft shoes and I hope they hold up as well
@@ThatGuyHealth that's great man keep killing it! The Spartan crafts I bought I used in my first rugged maniac this past weekend in LA and I really like em. Try em out see how you compare. I think they might be a little less supportive but shed water really well
Might want to give a green beret challenge a try before making statements like that. Courses built by special forces operators, some runs are teamsand you might have to build things during, some are supers like 24hr and there are solos like the operator which is what I run. The west georgia mud park was 105° and constant elevation changes. Worst of all was it was two laps not one.
Stephen Goin I was speaking of the well known runs as comparisons. I’m Definitely willing to look into it. But, the Spartan AGOGE is three days of elevation changes, humps, living in the wilderness, mentally challenging, physically challenging and I’m pretty sure a special forces operators would give the nod to. The green beret challenge, I’ll check it out. Thanks for bringing some interesting information to the thread! 💪🏾
Good day. I also have wide feet and the shoes fit them very comfortably. I am actually still using them till this present day. A very durable and reliable company. Thanks for the question and being a subscriber.
Awesome informative video! I’m in the market rn! Would you go SC 3,4 or 5? And is GTX a NECESSITY? 1st ever mud run and it’s a spartan race. Thank you 👍 God bless!
Yo, great vid! Would the speed cross Goretex be better or worse for an OCR? Water won’t get in but I’m thinking water won’t get out either. What you think?
Thanks for the view and question. What you said at the end is exactly right. Water not getting out will add weight and over time of the course lower your performance! Having the drainage system helps and keeps feet from just sitting in water throughout.
@@ThatGuyHealth appreciate the reply man. I picked up some speed cross 5's yesterday for $79! I had a follow up question for you: would you recommend competing with a hydropack with a bladder or with bottles for a Spartan race? Thanks again!
Thinking about doing a Spartan run at some point, but it's 2022 now and this video is from 2019, so I'm wondering if Solomon is still a good shoe brand to pursue for those runs.
Good day! Thanks for the feedback and being a subscriber. I did order mine true to size and they fit awesome. I still use them till this day. The quality has really impressed me. I hope they still have maintained that level of build.
