    Camille Herron, Ultrarunner and World record holder propelled by tacos and joy- let the magic come out!

    I set the first World Record in a pair of carbon plated shoes back in Nov. 2017, when I wore the Nike Vaporfly for my 100 mile World Record (12:42:40). The current version is the best yet! I especially love the upper on these, and they feel more lower profile than previous versions. Great shoe!
