Road Racing Shoes
Road racing shoes are lighter than trainers, and are usually used at running tracks or long distance races. They have a lower heel and a more efficient profile than other shoes. Their weight (170grams to 285 grams) can significantly contribute to increasing a runner's speed, but it means they provide less support and cushioning, and are thus not recommended for general training. The lighter the racer, the less cushioning it usually has. Racing shoes are a great option for more serious runners who want to achieve their very best competitively.
