Track and field is an important sport to show off and enjoy.  Track and field is based upon friendship, teamwork and basically having fun all in one. It is an sport that is played any and every where, ” it’s the type of sport to bring that city out.” And I say that little quote meaning it is live, fun and an excited sport to participate in all in one.  Track and field is also used by people who just want to have fun and better their track experiences.  Track takes a whole lot of practice and hard work ship. First, I’m going to talk about what track is all about and basic things to do while dealing with track and needed as well. While practicing  in track and field you will need a specific type of shoes dealing with the event that you are dealing with at the time. The most important thing to know and remember is that there are two basic type of shoes that exist and they are running shoes and track shoes or competition shoes , each has its own purpose and design for an event.  You will end picking your type of track shoes based off what event you attend and participate in throughout your time as doing track and field . There are some shoes called motion-control shoes and they are used for those who over pronate moderately or severely. These type of shoes give you the maximum rear foot control and extra support that is needed at any given time. These shoes are also mainly for heavier weight people and those who have low arches , they are benefited for best performances  and more quality. The other shoes are called cushioned shoes and they are used for lighter weighted people and minimal arch support . If I was you I wouldn’t command these type of shoes if you are over pronate. You would be wasting your money and time but at the end of practice and meets and more you will probably be hurting. Well at least your feet and cabins muscles running benefits it all dealing within the upper body. Performance training shoes are for those who compete the most and train as well.  Also for those who mainly know how to hold there balance and that are suitable for racing, speed work or daily training. Mid- distance runners will use these shoes on speed workout days. Racing shoes are meant for competition and usually an light weight but mainly fast shoe reserved. These shoes are for competition and practice and having fun but mainly staying focus. Its best to know what type of shoes you will need but based on the type of event you are in and practicing before the meet. But always be prepared and have the right shoes and mind of set going so that you capable to win and do your best even if you don’t.  Its  not always about winning but as long as you did what you could and tried your hardest. Dealing with track and field it is not an place where you win or lose . But it is an place in where you are classified in and that determines whether or not if you and you fellow team mates will make it to the next met. When you labeled as first place second or even third you are most likely to see and met new and better team that are about the same as you or even better. Track and field also has an special event that is called pen replays and it is important and only made for an selected few. The selected few is only a counted from the coach and the best of the best and I believe it is only 12 out of about 25 to 28. The 12 people that are a counted for to make it to pen relays are hard workers and motivated and is labeled as an go getter. And I say, ” A go getter” because they work hard to get where they are today and make to the best or the best. And also dealing with pen relays you will have to travel to another state and meet new  people and also people that you do not know from another state. Which Is also a good thing as well because it prepare you for later in life and also to strive better and work as hard as possible. Just remember to always keep your head up and do your best in any competition , race and practice. Practices makes perfect !!
