One of my favorite racing shoes ever was the Nike Mariah. It was an early air racing shoe, and if you approach five-minute pace, or better on it, you felt like you were flying. I used it for speed days and road racing, also using it for 2 miles to 5000m on the track. Being creatures of habit, Paul and I would race the same races each season to gauge our improvements. I recall one called the poor Man’s Bay to Breakers, in Foster City. A quick 5.8 to 6 mile, we ran it in 1979 and 1980. Paul ran 30:50 in 1979, within a month of going 30:51 for 10,000m on the track. I was second that year, running 32:40. The next year, Paul was racing somewhere else and I took the lead, not knowing a sub 4 miler was just sitting on me. We hit a track for the last 800m, and I tried to sprint away, and the guy got me, 31:04 to 31:08. It was my best race of year, in my Nike Mariahs, and it felt good to race fast.
