Food logging can be done in a few ways, including searching a database, scanning barcodes, or using AI-based camera analysis. Simpler items like eggs and fruit are identified well, but complex meals can be frustrating due to lighting and AI limitations.

The Nimbus has a midsole made of FF Blast+, which provides a soft ride but lacks energy return, making it best suited for slow, relaxed runs where pace doesn't matter.

Now, returning in 2.0 trim, it's been treated to a New York-inspired update thanks to the folks at HSDT. Proportions and comfort have been elevated, while the sneakers' visual language has taken shape through features inspired by NYC's everyday structures. This continues the brand's "The Architecture of Everyday Life" ideology, focusing on scaffolding and steel beams, stairwells and sidewalks, mesh fences, utility grates and metals.

The gravel edition sticks with the same PEBA and EVA hybrid midsole with a transition-smoothing curved rocker, but adds extra grip in the form of a 2.5-mm lugged outsole. There's also some extra reinforcement around the toe box.

The system, tested in prototype form by NPR at the company's headquarters, consists of fairly standard-looking sneakers with a carbon fiber plate running through the soles. These sneakers are attached at the back to close-fitting, 3D-printed titanium leg shells that cinch to the calves. The battery-powered contraptions, containing complex motors, sensors and circuitry, weigh a couple of pounds and look like something out of Terminator or RoboCop.

For runners, the hips can be one of the most confounding and frustrating parts of the physiological puzzle for efficient movement. Every runner knows how crucial hip strength is - and how mobile hips are essential for both fast and pain-free running. Yet healthy, happy hips remain elusive. For many of us, our hips stay stiff no matter how much we massage and stretch them.

Super shoes and ultralight gear make a difference, but with new advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) that can look at our running form and compare it to the ideal, analyze our nutrition intake from a simple photo and help us plan our diets, and offer guidance on training and recovery, the interwovenness of technology and running is only set to increase.

"We have a golden retriever, and so I walk her three or four miles a day, and I do a weight training class twice a week," says Brown, 62, of Arlington, Va. She knows muscle mass will decline without regular strength training. "We have a fun group with a personal trainer and we call ourselves the Beastie Girls," she says, describing how her group helps her stick with it. She also plays tennis and golf.

The midsole of the Nimbus 28 is slightly softer than the 27 but it's not very noticeable. The 28 midsole is also more sculpted and more streamlined which is how they managed to reduce the weight. The 28 is 7% lighter than the 27.

Cross training and running go together like peanut butter and jelly. If you build it into your schedule intentionally, strategically, and with a clear understanding of what you're trying to accomplish, you'll thrive. Megan makes the case that cross-training serves runners for several distinct reasons, and the right reason for you will shape how you approach it.

A tennis match usually starts with rituals you can set your watch by. A towel tug, a ball bounce, a glance at the strings. This year, a different ritual stole the first spotlight, because officials asked top players to take off a wrist wearable before they played, and the moment landed like a plot twist you did not order. This piece walks you through what happened, why it happened, and what it says about where tennis sits with athlete data right now.

Today, Shimano introduces the latest dual-function pedal in its lineup, the PD-EH510. This versatile hybrid pedal combines Shimano's renowned SPD clip-in system on one side with a fairly large flat pedal platform on the other. This gives riders the choice between clipped-in efficiency or the freedom of flat pedals, with a versatile pedal that's ready to ride, no matter which shoes they choose.

Specifically, the company is focusing on the production of its newest, weirdest shoe-a giant soled laceless running shoe with a single-piece toe box made of "hyper-foam" plastics sprayed on by robot arms. The plastics are 40 percent biofoam, and the shoe is made of just eight pieces; On says its minimalist approach saves on the shoe's carbon footprint.

The Brooks Adrenaline GTS reaches a major milestone in 2025 with the release of its 25th edition. Outside of the ASICS Kayano, it's hard to think of another stability trainer that has remained in production for this long. That longevity speaks to a shoe built on a strong foundation, one that has continued to evolve over the years while maintaining its place as one of the best-selling stability shoes on the market.

Puma PUMA MagMax Nitro 2 Verdict The PUMA MagMax 2 is a good max-stack daily trainer with deep cushioning and a moderately bouncy ride. Version 2 gets rid of the annoying poking arch and has a tweaked midsole that's more energetic.

The Hyperion Max 3 has a dual-density midsole with a top layer of DNA Gold and a bottom layer of DNA Flash, an EVA foam. The firmer DNA Flash provides a stable, durable base. Both shoes have plates in their midsoles but the Hyperion Elite 5 has a stiff carbon plate while the Hyperion Max 3 has a flexible nylon plate.

This latest iteration offers more cushioning and protection than ever, with an outsole that looks like it could be tread on a small bulldozer. Its generous 43-millimeter stack height at the heel and 35 millimeters under the forefoot for women, with 2 millimeters more on the men's side, and actual weight of 11.1 ounces (314 grams) for a U.S. men's 9 make it anything but svelte, yet the ride is surprisingly forgiving - absorbing impact without feeling sluggish.
