How fast do spike shoes make you sprint?

Question

My best events are the 200 and 100 meter dashes. So tell me for them. My times in those were 29 and 13.1.

Answer 1

spikes dont make u sprint fast,

they only help a little bit

more important is how hard u train and your natural ability

the times are pretty good

Answer 2

Spikes simply help you get more purchase off the ground, allowing you to run your fastest. They are also light weight, so that you are not slowed down as much as if you were wearing trainers. if you really want to improve your times work on sprints or reps. you could also google exercises specifically for the 100/200m dash.

Answer 3

they might take a second or two off of your 200 time

Answer 4

ok how old are you? and how tall?

those arent good times for highschool

there good for like 7th grade maybe

i was the fastest in my grade with a 12.6 and a 27 in 7th

Answer 5

with out a doubt they do make you perform faster,

but its also the amount of training you do, and how you do it( stuff like getting out of your blocks and your form etc.)

some people prefer to train in a bit of a heavier shoe, and when it came time for a meet or invitational run with the spikes on. but do alternate your shoes and your spikes

Answer 6

The difference between racing with and without spikes is about 1 second in the 200 and about 1/2 second in the 100.

There are lots of variables, but that is a good close number.
