Track spikes do not have a lot of support for your feet. Some have better support than others. For example, sprinter spikes do not have a heel or an arch. Distance spikes have some cushion for the heel. Overall, it is bad to run in spikes but you can still do it. Some work better than others though. It would be a better idea to run in distance spikes than sprinter spikes.

Can you put a Monster High doll in water?

No,They have removable arms,and hands...so if you bring them in water you could lose a body part!(different person) If you don't mind the risk of that, and you're careful, then I'm sure it's fine. Besides, since it has removable hands and arms, if you get water inside, you can take them off to dry it out. I wouldn't recommend it, but I say that you can put your monster High doll in water.

Are all track spikes removable Is it bad to take them off your shoe and then run with them?

Spikes should be removeable because they wear out pretty easily. If your spikes don't come out there is something wrong with your shoe. It is only bad to run with your spikes still on when you're not running on track or grass. NEVER run with spikes on concrete or anything else!!! It is not bad to run around with no spikes on your shoes, I do it all the time :)

What material is used to make spike in running shoe?

Track shoes with spikes on the bottom help you improve your run greatly. They are only used for field events and sprinting however. Some meets and clubs require that you have certain lengths of spikes. They skrew in and are easy to take in and out.

Where can you get replacement spikes for your high jump shoes?

You should be able to get them at any sporting goods store. Probably you want 3/8" spikes, because on most high jump shoes the spikes are recessed into the platform-like bottom of the shoe. You'd probably trip if they were longer and you wouldn't want anything longer than that on any decent high jump surface. Make sure you put the heel spikes in, because they help you get a more secure plant when you take off. Take it from a 7'1" high jumper-just so you know your source is credible.

How do you install track spikes?

To install a track spike, first take the threaded part of the spike and insert it into one of the holes at the bottom of your track cleat. Turn the spike clockwise to tighten it until you can no longer turn it. To fully tighten the spike, you will need a spike wrench which you should turn clockwise until the spike fully tightens. You will repeat the same process for all of your track spikes.


What is the difference between track shoes and high jump shoes?

Well, I don't have experience with these specific types of shoes, but I do have several years of working in retail shoe stores, so will take an educated guess on this one. Most likely, track shoes are geared towards running, so will be slightly curved to aid in the running motion, will have soles that grip the ground, and will have cushioning mainly in the heels to absorb the shock of running. High jump shoes are probably more flexible to accommodate the motion of jumping, and probably have cushioning at the ball of the feet, to absorb shock upon landing, which most likely occurs at the ball of the foot.


Where can I buy new track and field shoes?
