Description
Daido Dagne Bruvere and Edgars Bernans review how advanced running shoes lift endurance performance, in work from twenty twenty-five. Carbon-plated shoes arrived in twenty seventeen and records fell soon after. Gains span from short road races to the full marathon. Past work finds running economy gains that turn into faster times. Why the shoes work so well is still not fully clear.
The review weighs body mechanics and body function accounts side by side. Shoe traits such as plate stiffness, foam, and shape all matter. Each runner's own mechanics shape how much gain they extract. Fit between shoe design and stride style drives the final benefit. Evidence-based picks and training tweaks follow from that fit logic. Coaches and athletes gain a guide to squeeze real gains safely. More lab work on mechanisms is still needed.
