Spikes help you run by providing enhanced traction, which allows for better grip on the track or field surface. This increased grip enables faster acceleration and more efficient energy transfer during sprints. Additionally, the lightweight design of spikes reduces overall shoe weight, allowing for quicker foot movements. Overall, they improve stability and performance, especially in competitive racing.
