Spandex is important to athletes because it dries quickly and supports muscles. It also helps aid in flexibility while an athlete is moving.

you should wear spandex because its like swimming, the more you have on you, the slower you move. Spandexs are pretty tight and they stick to you when your running, so you can run faster.
