Not recommended for absolute beginners. The full carbon plate delivers strong propulsion that requires adequate leg strength and running technique. Suitable for runners with half-marathon finishing ability (~under 2 hours) or 6+ months of regular training. The 10mm drop is heel-striker friendly, but the carbon plate's rolling effect takes time to adapt to. If your 5K PB is still over 30 minutes, start with the Juechen 3 (nylon carbon shank) or Qidan 5.0 (no carbon plate) to build your foundation first. Full carbon shoes feel unnatural at slow paces, so ensure your training level justifies the upgrade.
