Hunter’s VKTRY Essentials
VKTRY Performance Insoles
Hunter has been wearing his VKTRY Insoles in every race and training day for the last year, and swears by them as an extreme-distance runner. In every stride, the patented carbon plate underneath the insole flexes, storing and returning energy. As Hunter says “they make running 800 miles feel like 600 miles”.
Recovery Clogs
After running two marathons in a day, the first thing Hunter’s feet are going to need is some support - and he’ll be getting that from his brand new Recovery Clogs. These are the world’s first recovery-shoe with an arch-supporting carbon plate, preserving his arch and aiding recovery the moment he stops running. For an extreme challenge, the recovery clogs are going to make a real difference to his overall time, as his feet will be in better shape at the end of every session.
Compression Socks
One of the key pieces of kit for many ultra runners is a good pair of compression socks, and Hunter is no different! Compression socks generally improve circulation while reducing cramp and swelling - very important when running 100+ miles. However, Hunter’s VKTRY Compression Socks come with an extra benefit! VKTRY’s innovative design comes with a propulsive V-shaped band, which reduces tension on the lower leg and achilles tendon - truly differentiating them as a key tool for extreme distance running.
