Engineered for speed, distance and performance, the Distance S Performance Racer continues to prove to be the ultimate "PR in a box." Designed on an ultra-light race-specific profile, the Distance S helps you find your sweet spot to maintain fast-paced running technique. A medial (support) post extends from the arch area to underneath the metatarsal heads to combat early and late-stage pronation. It features Newton’s Action/Reaction Technology™ in the forefoot and an advanced rearfoot design aimed at maximizing forward propulsion and optimal running form. Independent studies prove this technology, in conjunction with the LAND-LEVER-LIFT running technique, provides less stress on a runner’s joints, muscles and tendons.

SUCCESSES

Craig "Crowie" Alexander used this shoe to run the fastest marathon split (2:45) of the day en route to winning the 2008 Ironman World Championship. He says this classic yellow racer helps him maintain efficient running form in tough conditions, allows him to keep running fast when fatigue sets in and promotes a quick recovery.
