    Rigging up shoes was one of Bill Bowerman's MOs before he and Phil started Nike. I'm sure he wasn't the only coach to do this, either.

    Nothing new under the sun

    The future of NCAA track is athletes rigging up Frankenstein shoes with whatever mishmash super shoe parts they have.

    Watch out for the 20 spike, 50mm stack height, super shoe that also has the Alphafly weird air bag thing on the front.

    People forget or don’t realize that except for maybe the 10000m distance (where the extra cushioning can stave off fatigue), a very high stack shoe is counterproductive to optimal performance on the track, due to curves.

    re: Happy for her but you know

    Are you referring to Tuohy? She was never tested and then once she entered the testing pool, all of sudden, she wasn't eligible to race for 6 months.
