What in your opinion is the best type/brand of racers for the mile?
What in your opinion is the best type/brand of racers for the mile?
I'd have to say the best brand would be nike, hands down. My faves of all time are the jasari's and the lanangs. I really don't mind a lack of cushioning and like to feel as little between my feet and the track as possible, apart from being barefoot. the jasari's get you more up on your midfoot, while the lanangs(or the milers) tend to jack you up on your toes. The closest alternative to the jasari's in terms of flexibility and feel would have to be the nike ventulus.......
This is just a question, does anyone know how the sizing in the reebok deluxe distance compares to the old jasari's, or the new lanangs? i wear an 11 in the lanangs, but wore an 11.5 in the jasari's. thanks for any input, and hope that helped you with your spike choices

Well, there is not much more to say. Any lightweight distance spike would be fine for the mile. I mean correct me if I'm wrong, but you'll run just as fast wearing the Zoom Rivals as you would if you wore the Jasaris.
From personal experience: Milers
From what I hear: Jasaris
