Dorian Ulrey KWIK-E Must be nice to have talent.	Article 11 hours ago by ck3237	12
FloFocus - Lowdown on the Saucony Showdown I think the new Shay XC 2 colors are awesome. I just saw them in Eastbay. They are actually more wearable than the new XC Nike colors which are crazy (not in a good way). These Showdown colors are cool, but I would like to see a red one too. If Wallace has a bunch of different colors, will Flotrack or Saucony add the images to this post so we can see them? that would be awesome! ps.I agree...call it Flocus...make it happen.

Dorian Ulrey KWIK-E I love how he doesn't hide from the whole stereotype that distance runners don't drink. I love it!	Article Yesterday at 7:32pm by tk	12
FloFocus - Lowdown on the Saucony Showdown I'd like to be a part of the focus group. We got in some of the new Shay XC's and there were probably the ugliest colors I've ever seen on a shoe. I'd love to help out another American brand move to the front.	Article Yesterday at 7:04pm by Nate Houle	37

FloFocus - Lowdown on the Saucony Showdown They aren't meant to be flexible, they're sprinting spikes	Article Yesterday at 4:15pm by Joseph Moncada	37
Dorian Ulrey KWIK-E Dorian transferred with his coach from UNI to Arkansas, that is a fact. And I do believe that if you transfer as your coach leaves you do not lose that year of eligibility. But I could be wrong about that.	Article Yesterday at 4:15pm by YES	12
FloFocus - Lowdown on the Saucony Showdown I have not raced on the track in many years and I haven't worn spikes in more years than I can remember, but the spikes look like they are very stiff and not very flexible.	Article Yesterday at 2:07pm by Kenneth Pfaff	37
Dorian Ulrey KWIK-E dorian always makes for a great interview. great article.	Article Yesterday at 2:03pm by Ben Raphelson	12
Dorian Ulrey KWIK-E I think his UNI coach left one of the seasons and, if I'm not mistaken, that allows an athlete to transfer without sitting out a season. I could be wrong though....but yeah.	Article Yesterday at 1:23pm by helloooo	12
Dorian Ulrey KWIK-E How does he still have eligibility? Don't D1 athletes lose a season of eligibility transferring? Or is that just football?	Article Yesterday at 6:05am by Grumpy Panther	12

Dorian Ulrey KWIK-E Better watch out for them hobos	Article Yesterday at 4:09am by Anonymous Coward	12
FloFocus - Lowdown on the Saucony Showdown Wallace Spearmon is easily my favorite sprinter because we both have terrible starts and come back. When I heard Wallace was being signed by Saucony I was excited because I knew they would treat him right. That being said, these shoes are awesome, all the colors shown are great and I will defiantly be getting my hands on a pair of these when I can.	Article July 29 at 6:46pm by David Goings	37
FloFocus - Lowdown on the Saucony Showdown Yeah, the black ones are sweet. Agree, a red one would be cool. The more colors the better, since you can find ones that go well with your uniform. The White ones would go with pretty much any uni, tho	Article July 29 at 4:50pm by Anonymous Coward	37

FloFocus - Lowdown on the Saucony Showdown In Brasschaat Lauryn Williams ran on a black/orange spike. That vizipro-look was pretty awesome. The blue ones are the best form the above pictured. The black and white are pretty standard.	Article July 29 at 7:24am by Bart VanAalst	37
FloFocus - Lowdown on the Saucony Showdown If you aren't sure these are sprinting spikes lol. The blue ones are my personal favorite because Nike has the Powercat in the white colorway already. I'm pretty sure the plate is a combo of the original superfly and current superfly plate; not the celar. It has 10 pins like the original (I might actually have 11 which is the legal limit) but placed similarly to the current version. The 10 spikes force you to go on your toes to make running on your toes easier. The full length plate is contoured to provide an extra "spring to your step" if you will while your sprinting to make sure you maintain your form.. This is for a true power sprinter. If you like relaxed spikes like the Celar, Maxcat, Powersprint, these may be to aggressive for you. I trained in Monsterfly's, Superfly's, Powercat's , etc. since freshman year so if you have as well your calves should handle this spike. It seems as thought the double upper may add weight but if you're a true sprinter, you wouldn't mind this. The double upper looks as if it provides superb lockdown similar to the shrouded Superfly P+ from back in the day. This is a great addition to the Saucony line up and will most certainly widen their fan base.	Article July 29 at 12:00am by Joseph Moncada	37
FloFocus - Lowdown on the Saucony Showdown yeah, would love to try those for a 400, wondering if they are really meant for 100/200. Really get you up on your toes	Article July 28 at 11:12pm by Anonymous Coward	37
Chris Solinsky That was in response to Badgers are Best	Article July 28 at 9:57pm by Anonymous Coward	11
Chris Solinsky No, that's not really how it works for a slower person. If you are running for a significant amount of time slower than 7:00, you are not fast enough for 7:00 to be your "Badger-Mile" pace (should be 8ish). For him, its always underestimating the mileage, in your scenario its considerably overestimating it. If you always run between 6:40-7:20 on runs, and always call it 7:00 pace, you're just estimating, its subtly different than what the Badgers do.	Article July 28 at 9:56pm by dwhite	11
