I am running a 5k race on the track tomorrow. I have a pair of zoom victory’s circa 2011 from my old 800 days. I also have a pair of true flats in the reebok floatride run fast pro.
The title says it all, should I wear the old zoom victory or should I wear the reebok floatride run fast pro?
Worth noting, I have not put on spikes in several years. I am leaning towards the floatride run fast pro.
Thanks for the opinions!
You’re racing a track race. Spike up.
It is questionable whether spikes make a difference for a 5k. All things considered, in your case, I'd go with the floatrides.
Thanks! Sometimes you just need someone to confirm the opinion you already have. Haha.
spike up and destroy your calves so you know you really ran it
in all seriousness try a few strides and if they feel good then go for it
otherwise stick with what youve been wearing for tempos
Are you running at the NCAA meet? Just look around at what the other guys (are you a guy?) are wearing and you wear what they wear. Got it? Good luck!
If you haven’t trained in spikes, no way should you race a 5k in them
+1 for the reebok
what's your pace?
It's my personal opinion that wearing spikes for an indoor track race, after not having worn them for several years, is a recipe for disaster!
So what happened???????
