Inspiration for Inov-8 at Uringa's soggy Sprint

Last Updated: Monday, 28 January 2013 21:02

Uringa had the worst weather of the holiday weekend for their Sprint event at Sydney Park. Heavy rain had left the course waterlogged and muddy, but despite the rain continuing to fall it didn't put off nearly 50 competitors who showed up for a run.  Some had the foresight to come in their best wet weather runners - which could of course also double up for the beach!  Will Inov-8 take their new shoe inspiration from these rather handy waterproof examples?  Probably not, especially as the runners quickly changed their footwear for more traditional O-shoes before they headed for the start box.
