  • For speed work eg interval sessions do you wear your fast race shoes sometimes, always or never? Is it like carbon track wheels where you don’t train on them except the week before nationals then put them on for race day!
    I’ve seen some triathletes appear to warm up in softer shoes, then change shoes for the work set.

  • I wear different (lighter / thinner / less cushioned) shoes if I'm on the track.

    Yeah, but slevless tho.

  • Fast shoes always, I think part of the reason the Norwegians change shoes is that the ASICS Metaspeed have always been hard to get hold of and this is compounded by the fact Blu prefers the discontinued version 1s so they’re just trying to limit the use, I guess there’s an element of saving the fast shoes for fast stuff but I’ve run 2500km this year 90% + in carbon super shoes and I’ve not imploded yet!
