Whats the difference between different track shoes?
Juan asked:
This is my first year running track and i dont have spikes but i need to get some. Im also doing high jump and hurdles and i noticed that they have different kind of shoes for each event. Whats are the differences between sprints shoes (200 - 400m) and high jump shoes? Also, could I buy one kind and use it for both events and what would be better, use sprint shoes for both events or use high jump shoes for both?

How tight should my track shoes be?
Kevin N asked:
I recently bought a pair of track shoes. Asics Turbo Phantom
My running shoes are size 5 so i bought the track shoes in size 5 too.
They are kind of tight but i can still move my toes a little.
I’m planning on doing the 800m and 400m.
Should i get a 1/2 size larger? Or is it suppose to be tight?
