"In the middle of a storm, bombing down wet, technical descents about 12 miles from the finish line of the 2025 CCC outside of Chamonix, France, Robyn Lesh felt something perhaps a bit strange, given the circumstances: She felt secure in her footing. "I felt completely attached to the ground on those descents, which are getting dark, really wet, rocky, like your headlamp is bouncing off the shiny rocks,""
"Lesh attributed her sense of security and confidence on slippery, rocky trails to the Vibram Megagrip Elite outsole on her Norda 005 trail running shoes. The Megagrip Elite outsole, which uses advanced technology to provide unparalleled grip on steep and technical terrain no matter the weather, is designed for runners hunting fast times in big races. The Megagrip Elite and the brand's Megagrip outsoles seemed perfectly suited for the wet, rugged trails of this year's UTMB Mont Blanc festival races when rain moved in and soaked everything."
Robyn Lesh reported feeling unusually secure on wet, technical descents about 12 miles from the 2025 CCC finish near Chamonix, describing strong attachment to the ground even as headlamps reflected off shiny rocks. Lesh finished seventh in the 100-kilometer UTMB World Series Final distance race and credited the Vibram Megagrip Elite outsole on her Norda 005 shoes for the grip and confidence. The Megagrip Elite uses advanced technology to provide unparalleled grip on steep, technical terrain in varied weather and is aimed at runners seeking fast times. Many top-10 finishers across the TDS, OCC, CCC and UTMB wore Vibram outsoles. The TDS registered three of the top 10 women and two of the top 10 men using Vibram outsoles.
