Product news: adidas Supernova Glide Boost
You can see some pictures from the day by clicking the 'Gallery' button above and we have put together a brief video on the runbelow.
Run247 were invited along to the Highburyfields parkrun to test out the new adidas Supernova Glide Boost running shoes and also the new official Virgin Money London Marathon running kit (more on this to come).
For thosewho have not yet come across a parkrun, they are free 5k runs against the clock that takes place in venues up and down the country (you can find out more here www.parkrun.org.uk).
The Highburyfields run takes place in Highburyfields in the Islington. As you can imagine, green space in London is always at a premium, so the 5k course is worked around five laps of Highburyfields and run mostly on tarmac paths (course details here).
The start and finish are on a slight hil, so this is a good, testing run.
The Supernova Gilde Boost is the latest shoe to use the boost technology (more on boost here).
This is what adidas has to say about them:
