TYR launches new Valkyrie Elite V2 running shoe

TYR has launched the Valkyrie Elite V2, a new carbon plate running shoe that the manufacturer claims ranks among the lightest and most explosive race shoes ever made. The shoe is of interest to Hyrox athletes looking for a competitive edge during the running segments.

That technology comes at a price, of course. The Valkyrie Elite V2 costs $280, making it one of the more expensive options in its category.

For serious Hyrox competitors and CrossFitters who incorporate a lot of running into their training, a quality running shoe can make a real difference. Whether the investment is worth it depends on how important the running segment is to you and what your budget allows.
