Making new tracks with Vibram soles, (Tested Where it Matters), after a snowy science fair day!



Making new tracks with my new shoes. Vibram, a high performance sole, along with New Balance supplied all participants with new shoes to try on the Antarctica Marathon. 
So I thought what better thing to experiment with after a great 
Hidden Valley Science, Engineering and Learning Fair last night. 

I woke up to a new covering of snow and headed out for my usual 5 mile trek. The shoes gripped the crunchy snow, but still slid a bit over icy patches on sidewalks and rounding corners. They felt great! 
Nice support, comfortable and not too heavy.

Reagan, which way should we go?
Tested them out on our fresh covering of snow. 


Loved how the color matches my running tights. 
Motto: Look good, run good!


Research Info from their shoe tag.

Materials:
Durable but light & flexible enough to move with the foot.
Vibram, high quality rubber compounds, offer the highest in durability along with maximum grip & traction.
Construction: 
Specially molded using precise attention to detail, Vibram soles have been built by the leaders in sole engineering & design for over 75 years.
Design:
Innovative solutions. Performance driven. Detail oriented. Every Vibram outside is developed with the best technical & aesthetic features for its end use.


My students are ALL WINNERS at the 2015
Hidden Valley Science, Engineering and Learning Fair.
Loved all the volunteer judges.
Especially my former students that now attend BHS.
