I am about to go do my first summer track work out, and I am wondering which type of shoes each one of you use. Last track season I used spikes for the first time outside of a race. My legs definitely felt worse after a workout, but the race times showed perhaps a positive result. Are there any benefits of using spikes during workouts...perhaps gives your calfs a better "workout", etc?
barefoot
what season are you training for? if xc, no need to train w/spikes during summer...
im doing a half marathon in october.

Use the shoes you race in, or a similar pair.
