Hills of Death (HOD) Nov 2021 6:19pm, 25 Nov 2021 36,075 posts	0 Hills of Death (HOD) I brought some Pegasus 38 with the 25% discount as training shoe. How many miles do you get from them ?
Kieren Nov 2021 9:32pm, 25 Nov 2021 4,260 posts	0 Kieren It's basically the same as the pegasus 37 - I just retired mine at 640 miles. The upper and outsole are still in excellent condition. At 500 miles, the react midsole felt really good and I was sure I would get over 1000 miles. However the about 610 miles, left foot started feeling flat, followed soon after by the right. I land mid to forefoot and I think maybe the zoom airbag has gone?
Hills of Death (HOD) Nov 2021 10:17pm, 25 Nov 2021 36,076 posts	0 Hills of Death (HOD) Yeah I have 300 miles out of my 37s so far still going strong. Got a few VF and a pair of AF for long distance. What do you think best for 5 miler on Sunday 4% ? VF Next % or AF

Gobi Nov 2021 8:27am, 26 Nov 2021 75,216 posts	0 Gobi Blimey, people wear shoes way beyond my limit About to bin my pair of 4% training shoes. Done 3 to 5 hundred miles. I don't do enough to be overly worried.
jda Nov 2021 8:33am, 26 Nov 2021 11,206 posts	0 jda I generally wear shoes pretty much till they split or the soles fall apart and despite being over 80kg I seem to be quite light on wear. But my original VF are definitely a bit flat-footed compared to new, and I wouldn’t wear them in any serious race now.
Gobi Nov 2021 9:54am, 26 Nov 2021 75,217 posts	0 Gobi Jda - i wear until I think the sole is done or the shoe splits.
SPR Nov 2021 10:25am, 26 Nov 2021 35,805 posts	0 SPR Macca's shoes look fine to me for daily training. Only issue with wear is if it's uneven and means the shoe is sloping in or out due to lateral wear.
