Nike's most popular running sneaker has $56 off right now — here's why I recommend it
The good news is, if you're in the market for a new pair of shoes, the Nike Pegasus 41 is on sale for $84 right now on Nike.com.
The Nike Pegasus 41 is on sale in the men's sizing for $84 right now in the Nike summer sale. There are tons of different colorways available, but you'll have to cycle through to find the best deal in your size. While women could buy the men's shoe, unfortunately, the women's specific Pegasus 41 isn't on sale. The best deal I could find is on the special edition After Dark Tour series, which is on discount to $94 with the code SPORT.
I've been writing about the Nike Pegasus since the brand released the Pegasus 35. Six years later, it's still a staple in my shoe collection, best suited for easy, everyday miles. If you're only looking to have one running shoe in your collection, it's a decent all-rounder, with enough snap to pick up the pace when you need to.
The Nike Pegasus 41 is my favorite iteration of the shoe yet. It's more comfortable under the forefoot in particular when compared to its predecessors, which sometimes felt a bit thin in that area on long or fast runs. It's nowhere near as soft or bouncy as the Nike Invincible 3, but that's not a bad thing, if anything, it gives the shoe more versatility.

Tom's Guide's Nick Harris-Fry, our resident 2:25 marathon runner, agrees, writing, "The new ReactX midsole and higher stack on the Pegasus 41 give it a softer ride than its predecessors, but it's not so squishy underfoot as to be unstable in any way. It's a balanced midsole that is comfortable for easy and long runs, but has a little bounce to it when you want to up the pace."
This is a fantastic running shoe, and for $84, it's a bargain. Whatever you're training for, this is a steal of a shoe, and one worthy of its place in your rotation. Grab it while you can.

It's not surprising that the Online Safety Act doesn't cover personal data safety
On July 25, 2025, the Online Safety Act (OSA) went into effect in the UK, requiring sites hosting adult content and social media platforms to verify users' ages before allowing them to access adult content. With age verification techniques including supplying personal/sensitive information to these sites or platforms (e.g. photo ID, a face scan, credit card information, email address or phone number), many UK residents have turned to using the best VPNs to circumvent the ban. Concerns about the integrity of the third parties employed by sites or platforms have been raised, with many worried that their sensitive personal information will be stored, shared or even used to train AI models. However, many of these concerns have not been addressed by the UK government, with the focus being on the Online Safety Act's enforcement. NordVPN: our top-rated VPN overallFrom our testing, we consider NordVPN to be the best VPN for most people. This is down to its rock-solid security and privacy, excellent speeds and great unblocking performance. Prices start from £2.31 / $2.91 per month for a two-year subscription, which includes an exclusive four months free for Tom's Guide readers. Plus, you can get an Amazon gift card worth up to £50 / $50 if you sign up for NordVPN's Plus or Complete memberships. A 30-day money-back guarantee applies to all subscriptions. While this may be concerning to many UK citizens who do not want their personal information to be shared or stolen, and are worried about the potential ramifications of a data breach or leak of an age verification platform, it's not necessarily surprising that personal data safety hasn't been considered in the OSA. In May 2024, it was revealed that nearly 70% of UK MPs had had their personal information leaked on the dark web, including personal and login information. MP's email addresses were exposed 2,110 times, with some MPs targeted up to 30 times, and over 200 plain-text passwords were also leaked. The most common cause for these information leaks were hacks or breaches of companies that MPs had signed up for using their parliamentary email – including Adobe, Dropbox and LinkedIn. This is incredibly poor cybersecurity practice, as the leaks demonstrate – if the MPs had reused the same login information for any other account, it would be easily accessible. Even MPs who were on committees dedicated to looking after the cybersecurity of the UK had their personal data leaked, which is concerning considering the fact that you would expect them to have much more rigorous and robust data security practices. However, it does make it less surprising that the Online Safety Act does not include any requirements for businesses to ensure that users' personal data is kept secure. It appears as though this simply hasn't been considered. Additionally, with MPs like the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology Peter Kyle making inflammatory statements regarding pushback to the act – he posted on X that those who oppose it are "on the side of predators" – it appears that the government is far more concerned with the enforcement of age verification than ensuring that the sensitive information used for this is kept safe. The Online Safety Act does lay out guidelines for the age verification checks themselves, namely that they must be "technically accurate, robust, reliable and fair," but this doesn't mention anything about them being secure. By not outlining any guidelines for these age verification checks, it means that sites and platforms do not have to use secure third parties. While many are choosing to – for example, Reddit has employed the use of Persona, which deletes all user information within 7 days, and Spotify has employed the use of Yoti, which deletes user data immediately – this offers little reassurance that this will be the case for most other sites. The only statement regarding personal data safety has been from OFCOM, who shortly addressed data security and privacy concerns in an article on the Online Safety Act and what users need to know about it. OFCOM stated: "Strong age checks can be done effectively, safely, and in a way that protects your privacy. As with everything you do online, you should exercise a degree of caution and judgement when giving over personal information. "Data protection in the UK is regulated and enforced by the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). We work closely with the ICO and where we have concerns that a provider has not complied with data protection law, we may refer the matter to the ICO. "In the UK people are familiar with having to prove their age in the offline world to buy age-restricted goods like alcohol and tobacco. Age checks to access [mature content] are just the same. It will help stop children from encountering [mature content] online, in the same way that a child should not be able to simply walk into a shop and buy a [NSFW] DVD or magazine." In this statement, the onus is on the end user to make sure their personal data is kept safe, rather than having the Online Safety Act require that the age verification techniques must be secure in the first place. Additionally, providing an ID card to a shop assistant, bouncer or bartender is incredibly different to taking a picture of your ID or scanning your face, especially when there is no guarantee that this information will be deleted. After all, a shop assistant would not take a photocopy of your ID and then hang onto it for an unspecified amount of time afterwards. However, there is some comfort to come from the fact that third-party age verification services will have to follow UK-based data regulations. Under the General Data Protection Regulations in the UK, personal data can only be "kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed." Essentially, this means that data should not be retained when it is no longer needed. While this could technically mean that age verification companies delete user data once their age has been verified – for example, Spotify's age verification partner, Yoti, does this – this may not be the case for all age verification services. Additionally, the statement that OFCOM "may" refer companies to the ICO if they have sufficient concerns that an age verification company has not complied with GDPR does not quite feel good enough when people's faces and sensitive information are at risk. Overall, while many companies do appear to be putting secure age verification checks in place, the concerns about personal data raised by the OSA are not unfounded. Hopefully there will be more guidance released regarding the safety and security of UK citizens' personal data in the coming weeks. We test and review VPN services in the context of legal recreational uses. For example: 1. Accessing a service from another country (subject to the terms and conditions of that service). 2. Protecting your online security and strengthening your online privacy when abroad. We do not support or condone the illegal or malicious use of VPN services.

Sha'Carri Richardson Arrested for Domestic Violence at Seattle Airport
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Reigning 100-meter world champion Sha'Carri Richardson was arrested last weekend at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport on charges of fourth-degree domestic violence, according to a police report obtained by The Associated Press. Newsweek reached out to Richardson's agent and manager via email on Saturday for comment. Why It Matters The arrest of one of track and field's most prominent figures marks another controversial chapter in Richardson's turbulent career. This incident comes after her previous legal troubles, including a positive marijuana test at the 2021 U.S. Olympic trials that prevented her from competing at the Tokyo Olympics. Richardson's pattern of off-track issues threatens to overshadow her athletic achievements and raises questions about athlete conduct standards. What To Know The 25-year-old sprinter was booked into the South Correctional Entity (SCORE) in Des Moines, Washington, at 6:54 p.m. local time Sunday and released Monday at 1:13 p.m. Despite the arrest, Richardson competed Thursday in the opening round of the women's 100 meters at the U.S. track and field championships in Eugene, Oregon. According to the police report, a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) supervisor notified airport officers of a disturbance between Richardson and her boyfriend, fellow sprinter Christian Coleman. Airport surveillance footage reportedly showed Richardson grabbing Coleman's backpack and yanking it away, then appearing to block his path as he attempted to move around her. The report indicates Coleman was shoved into a wall, and Richardson appeared to throw an item—potentially headphones—at Coleman. Coleman, also a world-class sprinter and former world champion, declined to participate further in the investigation and declined to be considered a victim in the case. Richardson's athletic resume includes winning the 100 meters at the 2023 world championships in Budapest, earning silver at the Paris Olympics, and contributing to the U.S. 4x100 relay team's Olympic gold medal. Sha'Carri Richardson reacts after competing in the Nike Women's 100m during the 2025 USATF Outdoor Championships at Hayward Field on July 31, 2025 in Eugene, Oregon. Sha'Carri Richardson reacts after competing in the Nike Women's 100m during the 2025 USATF Outdoor Championships at Hayward Field on July 31, 2025 in Eugene, People Are Saying USA Track and Field said in a statement: "USATF is aware of the reports and is not commenting on this matter." What Happens Next? Richardson's immediate competitive future appears unaffected, as she successfully advanced through the opening round of the 100 meters at the U.S. championships. Her automatic qualification for the world championships in Tokyo remains intact due to her defending champion status. Fourth-degree domestic violence charges in Washington state are typically classified as gross misdemeanors, which can carry penalties including fines and potential jail time if convicted. Reporting from the Associated Press contributed to this article.
