MARY CAIN
3,000M WORLD JUNIOR CHAMPION
Like most teenagers, Mary Cain could use a little more structure in her life. Unlike most teenagers, Mary needs it directly on her feet—and it can’t slow her down, because she’s going to use it to help her become one of the world’s fastest distance runners. You see, no normal 17-year-old is supposed to be able to run her way into the final of a World Championships the way Mary did in 2013. But with her incredible speed and composed demeanor, Mary is far ahead of normal. And now that she trains at Nike’s World Headquarters as part of the Oregon Project and has direct input on her training shoe of choice—The Nike Air Zoom Structure— it’s only a matter of time before she’s far ahead of everyone else.

Keeping this precocious talent on track is now the full-time job of both Alberto Salazar and the aforementioned Air Zoom Structure, which for decades has been proving—to the great relief of overpronating runners everywhere—that stable doesn’t have to mean slow. And no Air Zoom Structure in history is more up to the task than this 18th version, which pushes into new territory in the way it delivers both speed and stability. Whenever Mary needs stability, the triple-density Dynamic Support system will kick in to help her. Should she crave some extra support from the top, lightweight Flywire cables will hold her steady. And when it comes time to go, the ultra-responsive Nike Zoom Air in the forefoot will get her up on her toes in a hurry.
Mary’s uncanny ability to keep her cool when others might flinch is bound to serve her well as she climbs up the ranks. But it must be reassuring to know that whenever things get tough, she’s got incredible support all around her—beginning at her feet.
