Are racing flats right for me?

I have had a few questions about whether or not a runner should go with a racing flat. Over the last couple of years that has translated into a carbon-plated super shoe, but there are a number of options out there for all types of runners.

Back in the day, racing flats were not made with any specific foot type in mind, just flat-out weight and speed. Now, with new midsole technology and material, it is possible to get into a faster shoe, even if you need something with a little more support. Whether you are chasing a Boston Marathon Qualifier, or simply trying to max out your current fitness, there's probably an option for you.

Here are my thoughts on getting into a racing flat.
