TOUJOURS PLUS.

Le 10 août, Kilian Jornet faisait une nouvelle clé de bras à Sierre-Zinal : 10ème victoire, nouveau record pour 7 dixièmes. Le 13 août, il partait pour un projet et on a vite pigé le délire : tous les 4000 des Alpes en faisant les jonctions en vélo. Parce que oui, il a beau dire « le plus possible de 4000 », quand on connaît l’animal on sait bien qu’il veut aller titiller les 82 sommets de 4000 des Alpes et si possible le plus rapidement possible. En 9 jours : déjà 23 sommets, 33 000 mètres de dénivelé et des journées qui visiblement ne font plus 24 heures. Kilian, c’est ce couteau Suisse venu de Catalogne capable de claquer un KV en moins de 30 minutes, Sierre-Zinal en 2h25’34’’, Zegama Aizkorri et ses 42 bornes et 2736 mètres de D+ en 3h36’40’’, la course de quartier en moins de 20 heures, être le seul mec à avoir raflé les 4 monuments de l’ultra ou encore faire Chamonix - sommet du mont Blanc - Chamonix en 4 heures, 57 minutes et 40 secondes. Et si Kilian avait en réalité 200 clones pour se répartir les dingueries ?

boh sono stanco di come sono diventato in questo ultimo anno e mezzo, tu mi vedi tanto cambiato? io non sto bene a fare quello che faccio, mi sembra di remare ogni giorno controcorrente per cambiare cose che non cambieranno, e nel frattempo perdo pezzi per strada e faccio cazzate come questa della carta d’identità perché non ho la testa su dove sono, e non succedeva prima, cioè sì ma non per cose che mi importavano. Prima nel sacco a pelo pensavo che nelle 100 miglia arriva un momento in cui ti stendi al caldo a un ristoro e vorresti solo stare lì e dormire e mandare tutto al diavolo, poi sai che anche all’arrivo c’è un letto e sai che sarà definitivo quindi ti rialzi e bon. Boh mi sento un po’ così, con l’unica differenza che non c’è un arrivo. Sta notte volevo solo tornare a casa stendermi a letto con te e dormire, che penso è quello che farò domani. Ma anche prima, l’ho detto alla mamma, se domani fossi andato a Zegama avrei montato la tenda e mi sarei messo a dormire. Ho sonno e ne ho il cazzo pieno di tutto. Una 100 miglia scelgo io di correrla, ma di rompermi il cazzo con cose che non funzionano no, lo subisco perché sono fatto così e non so accontentarmi che le persone facciano realtivamente schifo. Però ora sono davvero stanco e vorrei solo andare a letto. boh non so se ho detto qualcosa ma ho gli occhi lucidi e non ho voglia di vedere nessuno, vorrei andare in un bivacco da qualche parte e lanciare il cellulare e non fare niente e non pensare niente

New Nike Kiger and ReactX Wildhorse 10: Celebrating a Decade of Innovation for Adventurous Runner

Nike Trail is celebrating a decade of equipping adventurous athletes worldwide with the launch of the Kiger and ReactX Wildhorse 10 — two new trail running shoes meticulously designed to meet the needs of trail runners everywhere.

Since the inception of its modern trail franchise in 2014, Nike has harnessed its expertise in road and race cushioning, combined with off-road innovations dating back to the 1980s, to create footwear that allows runners to explore nature with top-tier performance and protection. Over the past decade, the brand has developed a collection of eight exceptional trail running shoes, each engineered to meet the evolving demands of this rapidly growing sector.

The Kiger and Wildhorse are the original trail models in Nike’s lineup, offering consistent innovation year after year to serve the needs of today’s trail runners. This commitment to continuous improvement reflects Nike's dedication to athletes who thrive beyond the confines of paved roads.

“One thing I’ve always appreciated about Nike Trail is the relentless drive to improve and innovate,” says ultrarunner Sally McRae, a Nike Trail athlete for over a decade. “As an athlete, it’s exciting to be part of the process, ensuring we create the best shoes to advance the sport.”

Nike understands that the trail can be an entry point into running for athletes of all backgrounds, and the new Kiger and Wildhorse models are crafted to deliver a perfect blend of comfort and performance, whether for training runs, ultramarathons, or anything in between.

The Kiger 10 is one of Nike’s lightest and most minimal trail shoes to date. This low-profile silhouette is designed for trail races up to 50K, offering agility and speed on the trails.

For the first time, the Kiger features a Vibram Megagrip outsole, delivering exceptional traction and durability in high-wear areas like the forefoot and heel. The 3.5mm multidirectional lugs ensure a strong grip on ascents and confident braking on descents, even in wet conditions.

A forefoot rock shield adds extra protection across varied terrains, while the responsive Cushlon 3.0 midsole cushions each step. The shoe's sleek leno weave upper offers specific zones of durability, breathability, and containment, ensuring protection and performance where it’s needed most, along with excellent drainage for wet conditions. A soft collar enhances comfort, and a secure heel pocket keeps the foot firmly in place.

“If you’re looking for a fast, low-profile shoe that can handle any terrain up to 50K, this is it,” says Bailey Kowalczyk, a sub-ultra specialist and Nike Trail athlete. “The Kiger 10 feels fast, precise, and stable on everything from flats to steep, technical trails. It’s the go-to performance shoe for sub-50K trail races.”

While the nimble Kiger 10 pairs with Nike Trail’s Ultrafly racing shoe in the Rapid footwear line, the ReactX Wildhorse 10 joins the rugged Zegama 2 in Nike’s off-road category.

The Wildhorse 10 is built to handle a wide range of trail conditions, from short neighborhood runs to challenging 100Ks. With increased traction, cushioned responsiveness, and reliable containment, this model is designed to conquer nearly any trail challenge.

New features include a 3mm taller stack height, a forefoot rock shield, and enhanced toe protection — all while shedding 35 grams from its predecessor. Nike’s durable ReactX foam provides 13% more energy return while reducing the midsole’s carbon footprint by at least 43% compared to Nike React foam. The All-Terrain Compound outsole with 4mm lugs ensures excellent grip and durability in all conditions.

This adds up to a dependable and durable shoe that will help runners achieve their goals, whether they’re preparing for a trail 5K or an ultramarathon.

“The Wildhorse is very special to me. It’s always been reliable, no matter the terrain or weather,” says Sally, the long-time muse for the Wildhorse. “I’ll be wearing the Wildhorse for my next 200-mile race because I genuinely love this new model and want to show athletes that you can achieve big dreams without the most expensive flagship shoe.”

The 10th editions of the Kiger and Wildhorse, emblematic of Nike’s trail-running innovation, will be available globally in April 2025.

A thought for the New Year: While on a ride yesterday, I came to a T-junction at the bottom of a descent. I took a right. From the corner of my eye, I spotted a grupetto approaching from the left. The 5 guys, kitted out in Etxeondo and riding Orbea rigs (wait, am I in Basque Country? 😅), caught up with me soon enough. We were riding against the wind, going up a false flat. As they overtook me, we exchanged greetings, and then something extraordinary happened. They invited me to get in their wheel and pointed to a position where I could slip in. That has never happened to me before. Furthermore, you could tell from a mile away that I’m a Joe Foreigner. It didn’t matter to them. 
I could hold their wheel for only about 400m. Even though they were chatting away, exchanging gossip, the pace was furious, and my legs were about to fall off. They disappeared into the mountain as quickly as they appeared at the junction. 
May your 2017 be filled with kindness.

7 CHIFFRES A RETENIR DE LA PERFORMANCE LUNAIRE DU BOSS DU JEU KILIAN A ZEGAMA.

• 1. 3h38’07’’ pour 42 bornes et 2736 mètres de dénivelé positif. Vitesse moyenne : 5’07’’/km. Quand on connaît le terrain de Zegama, ça colle des frissons.

• 2. Deuxième chrono de l’histoire. Son propre record de 2022 n’est pas battu (3h36’40’’). Il faudra revenir.

• 3. Les trois premiers kilomètres en moins de 3’/km de moyenne si on se réfère à la vitesse ajustée à la pente. Départ souple, bouche fermée. La concurrence avait pigé le délire.

• 4. La première bosse de 317 mètres de dénivelé en 11’28’’, 1607m/h. Important que le corps soit bien chaud.

• 5. 08’09’’ sur le deuxième, son pote Elhousine Elazzaoui. 08’47’’ sur le troisième, Bart (on ne prend pas le risque d’écrire son nom de famille). Le vainqueur de 2023, Manuel Merillas, 5ème à 09’35’’. Le 10ème à 18’21’’. Kilian Jornet a bien eu le temps de terminer son puzzle de 10 000 pièces sur la ligne d’arrivée.

• 6. Une semaine de 202 bornes, 8974 mètres de dénivelé positif et 20h44 de course placée deux semaines avant la course. À ne pas reproduire chez soi.

• 7. 11ème victoire en 12 participations. Sa première victoire il y a 17 ans. Il avait alors plus de cheveux et il cavalait en Speedcross. La plus grande performance assurément.

Les légendes ne meurent jamais.
