Elitetrack: Sport Training & Conditioning

Hey, I just started track last season and my coach wants me to get spikes, but I am unsure which spikes to get. 
~Made for sprints to middle distance (200m-1,600m)
~Able to use for indoor track and outdoor track
It would also be preferable if they had some of these features:
~Excellent for 400m (my best event)
~Able to use for XC
~Good to long jump and/ or triple jump in

I understand that there are shoes specifically made for various events, but being that I'm just JV I just want a basic running spike for now, thats preferably low price.  Have any ideas or models that I could look at? :dance:

thanks!

dont worry about models too much.  just go to a store and find a sprinting spike with some heel.  the true hardcore sprinter spikes have no padding on the heel, but since you jump and run 200-1600 youll want the padding.  and make sure theyre comfortable.  good luck.

If you can get a good deal (which you probably can) look at both of these shoes:

First off, since the 4 is your primary, go with the Nike Rival MD or D+. They CAN both be used in CC, but really shouldn’t on some courses. These will work very well for track.

If you have the cash (about $30), get a pair of Nike Zoom Waffle XC’s. It’s practically a law for every HS CC runner to have them. Plus, they’re actually a good Nike shoe.
