There’s nothing quite like setting a goal, putting the hours in along the way and breaking through that barrier. Whether it’s the satisfaction of a job well done or in the pursuit of personal growth, it’s a feeling runners know all too well.
PUMA is one brand that has done the math on what it takes to achieve those micro wins along the path of growth: with the ForeverRun NITRO, they have created a shoe that empowers runners to find balance between growing and grinding and, quite literally, to go the extra mile.
Sleek design and vibrant colours aside, these shoes are cutting edge when it comes to providing support, durability and pressure distribution, leaving your mind and body free to hunt fresh milestones and smash PBs.
When I road tested these shoes I was carrying a niggle, but was pleasantly surprised by both my performance and how good my body felt afterwards. A couple days later, I decided to stride out a little more and, again, it was only after I’d finished that I really appreciated how fresh I felt. While there can be immense satisfaction in running, the frustration of injuries is a momentum killer. A shoe that gives me confidence in my body is worth its weight in gold.
Several features of the ForeverRun NITRO lend themselves to a smoother ride.
The geometry of the sole creates what PUMA calls a “rocker effect”, essentially meaning every stride comes with a seamless impact with the ground beneath you. Believe me, your feet, ankles, knees, hips, and back, will thank you.
They’re also equipped with double-density foam. This provides optimal pressure distribution, so you can say goodbye to those pesky hotspots and blisters.
Getting more technical now, PUMA’s High Performance Insole optimises the feeling of proprioception – basically, you'll have a better sense of your body's position and movement, helping to improve stress distribution, allowing you to run further without the excessive strain.
A calm mind on a long run is one of the great pleasures of the sport. To achieve that, you need to get your mind and feet working as one. For me, that’s much easier to do if I’m not having to focus on how sore I feel and whether I should be backing off a touch.
With the everyday runner looking to step things up a notch in mind, PUMA have created a running shoe which allows you to embrace the journey of personal growth. Whether you're getting after it on the road or hitting the trails, the durable rubber PUMAGRIP outsole offers multi-surface traction that's perfect for tackling all terrains. Targeted upper reinforcement thanks to PWRTAPE also provides the support and durability you need for those long runs.
There really is something transformative in learning more about one’s capabilities through running. The ease at which progress can be tracked and measured, coupled with the countless health benefits push us to continually be better than we were yesterday.
The ForeverRun NITRO is a running shoe which allows everyday runners to elevate their performance by doing more of what we love – running. The combination of lightweight construction, exceptional cushioning, breathability, and stability are a game-changer for those seeking to push themselves and break new barriers.
