This study evaluates the impact of different track spike technologies on running performance in trained athletes, finding performance benefits from modern foam spikes with and without a carbon fiber plate.

The paper introduces a method to assess advanced footwear technology spikes by measuring self-perceived middle-distance race pace and finds they improve running speed and step length.

This study evaluates how different levels of longitudinal bending stiffness in advanced footwear affect running economy and spatiotemporal parameters in trained runners.
