It's not about the shoes either, it's about getting in the best shape possible. However........
Once you start getting in good shape, it makes a lot of sense to invest in a decent pair of racing shoes. While the biggest gains in racing come from hard training and proper nutrition and recovery, a good pair of racing shoes can still provide a boost of up to 10 seconds per mile.
I'm including a couple of links to online shoe retailers who have closeout specials going. The shoes are sorted from cheapest to most expensive. Warning, the cheapest shoes are very limited in size availablity .
Dick Pond Athletics. - The sizes on this site are pretty Limited. The Nike Zoom Victory is a great spike, but it's not cheap, even at blowout prices.
First to the Finish - I like the Kilkenny shoe, but the sizes are limited. There seems like a pretty good size selection on the Asics Resurgence Spike. Don't by the Hyper LD6. It's a track spike.
ALSO. No morning workout this week. With the temperature coming back down, I don't see a need to do the morning sessions.
Hi Team
We have our annual snack bar duty. We need PARENT volunteers to work the snack bar and STUDENT volunteers to sell raffle tickets. This is a great fundraising opportunity for us. Money made at the snack bar funds the booster club, who buys our uniforms. Money made on the raffle goes directly to our program. Please sign up for one or two shifts.
