#182 How Much Faster are Super Spikes? Weight vs. Stack Height, and Super Shoe Benefits for Elites vs. Non-Elites

Our own David Salas is heading into a season of track racing and that got Matt Klein and him wondering...what's better for track racing: super shoes or super spikes? From there they spin off into debating whether our bodies plateau in their adaptation to super shoes, how super shoe adaptation may be effecting elite marathoners, and what this all means for the recreational runner.
