The 10 Best Track Spikes for Middle Distance Runners

Sprinters got all the love in our first installment of the best spikes for track athletes. This time, we’re out to help middle distance runners find a pair of spikes that will help them be first to the finish tape.

While sprint spikes feature aggressive uppers and spike plates, those designed for middle distance events are more modest, particularly when it comes to spike configuration. Unlike sprinters, who only rely on their shoes sometimes for only a matter of seconds, distance runners need spikes that are both durable, and will provide lasting comfort over longer periods of time.

Of course, as it goes for pretty much all types of performance footwear, choosing the right pair of track spikes often comes down to personal preference. Accordingly, we’ve put together a list of spikes that will cater to a variety of runners. Here are the 10 Best Track Spikes for Middle Distance Runners available today.
