Experience the latest in carbon-equipped shoes!
HOUYHNHNM's RUNNING CLUB♡ participated in the "HOKA EXPERIENCE BOSO CIRCUIT RUN & TRAIL", a two-day and one-night experience event organized by HOKA RUN CLUB, the official running club of "HOKA". . It was a closed event to which some general runners as well as related parties and business partners were invited, but HOUYHNHNM's RUNNING CLUB♡ members were specially invited to join in.
The first day was a road run. However, instead of running on public roads, the stage was a circuit!
This is Sodegaura Forest Raceway in Sodegaura City, Chiba Prefecture . This is a circuit for cars and motorcycles, and the idea is to run through the course in running shoes.
The shoes to be worn are the Rocket X 2 (ROCKET X 2). . It is a thick-soled racing model with a carbon plate in the midsole.
In addition to Hoka's signature MetaRocker construction, the Rocket X 2 features a carbon plate in the midsole with two layers of highly resilient PEBA foam. The midsole is equipped with a carbon plate to provide superior cushioning while at the same time generating forward propulsion with each landing. In addition, the design of the upper and sole have been completely updated from the previous "Rocket X," further improving durability and reducing weight.
