Reebok Running Ambassador Lydia Oldham takes on The Speed Project

Lydia Oldham & The Speed Project

The Speed Project is an infamous and unsanctioned annual race from LA to Las Vegas, covering around 500 km and some gruelling desert terrain. Its rep as an extreme endurance challenge attracts international ultrarunners competing in relay teams or even solo.

Our unstoppable Running Ambassador, Lydia Oldham, fearlessly tackled the challenge as a solo runner, repping the UK among just twenty-three other competitors. Equipped with the new Reebok FloatZig 1 running sneakers and supported by her dedicated RV crew and pacers, Lydia set off on her adventure.

Racing through the streets of LA and venturing onto the vast desert roads that stretch across California and into Nevada, Lydia pounded out relentless km through dawn, dusk and beyond, including an intense overnight and unsupported off-road run through the Mojave Desert.

Unfortunately, there’s no magic number for how frequently to replace running shoes. The commonly used 300 to 500-mile guideline is a useful starting point, but it isn't a hard deadline. Your running style, training, terrain and the condition of your shoes all play a part. If your shoes are showing clear signs of wear or no longer feel as cushioned or supportive, it may be time for a new pair, even if you haven't hit 300 miles.
