What can happen if you use different distance track spike shoes?
Your heels are unaccustomed to using different textures or pressures against it, which may lead to cramps or pains. Don't do It. The different distance spike shoes are designed specifically for that distance. The distance spike shoes have more cushioning in order to help the athlete to withstand the extra pounding. It can lead to leg problems if you aren't properly equipped.
Can you use regular track shoes with javelin spikes?
No, I do not recommend using regular track shoes to throw the javelin. Javelin spikes have spikes in the heel as well as the front, so you can plant your block leg without slipping. Generally speaking javelin spike shoes are a heavier shoe. This allows for the much longer spikes. However, some athletes do wear there "regular" spike shoes and purchase a "jav heel" to add the extra much needed spikes in the heels.
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.
Can you race in track shoes without the spikes?
Yes you can run in track shoes without the spikes but, I think that you should have spikes at the bottom of your track shoes because if you have the spikes then you can run faster than you would without them. Track and Field athletes that run during the indoor season run with studs, also known as blanks, in their shoes so as to not ruin the shoe or the track. They still choose to wear their spike shoes do to the lightweight nature of the shoe and the fact that they are accustomed to running in them. However, it is not recommended to wear stud/blanks on outdoor tracks.
