All right, tracksters! It’s almost March and we know your winter miles are in the bank, your paperwork is in to your school office and you’re chomping at the bit to get on the track. We’re right there with you. Get ready for your jamboree and make sure to open your season on the best foot and in the best spikes possible.
Next week, we’re hosting five days of spike nights at brooksrunning.com– a spike week, if you will. We’ve got our quickest spikes in the hottest colors available for purchase during this week with some awesome gifts to sweeten the deal.
Buy the 2QW-K, 2 ELMN8 or Wire 3 on brooksrunning.com between March 2-8 and get a signed poster from the Brooks Beasts and a sweet tank with colors to match your new racing shoes.
Check back and shop at this link starting March 2 to get your swag and your new spikes.
When you only have seconds to prove yourself, turn every step up to power mode with the aptly named 2 QW-K. A welded TPU forefoot strap, full-length spike plate, and one-piece aerodynamic upper gets you up on your toes and staying there until the tape hits your chest.
Why you’ll want to wear it: When you get in the blocks, your shoes are the last thing you want to worry about. Clear your head and focus knowing the 2 QW-K is light, aerodynamic and ultra aggressive on the track. And those hot colors are fire!
Get the next best thing to spike-adorned feet with the little-to-nothing feel of the 2 ELMN8. The upper is constructed with 3D Fit Print Overlays and featherweight mesh that wrap the foot over a perfectly balanced spike plate. Taking you from the line to your mid-race pace and through the final kick, this middle distance all-star likes to lean into it.
Why you’ll want to wear it: Middle distance running hits the in-between spot of sprinting and long distance, and you need a spike to match. Lightweight, sharp and aggressive enough to keep you pushing the pedal to the metal, even as you change gears, the 2 ELMN8 is your spike this season.
The nimble racing flat meets the quick track spike in The Wire 3. Bringing together the smooth ride of a lightweight, foam midsole and the just-right traction of an aggressive outsole, this racer kicks in with what you need, when you need it. Amazing in-shoe comfort, a light and supple 3D Fit Print upper, and embedded spike wells are just a few of the touches that will put you on the podium.
Why you’ll want to wear it: As a distance runner, you know the importance of finding the right balance of an aggressive spike that will help you when you get on your toes and the comfort and reliability needed for running lots of laps at once. The Wire 3 is the lightweight package you’ve been dreaming of.
Time to set a calendar countdown on your phone for March 2-8. You won’t want to miss out on virtual spike week!
