I've gotten a lot of questions recently on whether the Megablast is a good race shoe for certain time goals: sub-3 marathon, sub-3:40 marathon, sub-4 marathon. In this episode, I put the Megablast through a fast race pace workout to answer that question. I also share insights on my current training.
