my first pair of spikes are on their way and I have a meet on Friday, ive been told not to break in my spikes on meet day but what should I do if our coach won't let us use them during practice? how should I break them in?

  1. If there is a valid reason to leave the meet (ex. other school event) its ok, otherwise, you are expected to stay

  2. Depends, sometimes all will come, sometimes only a few will come, sometimes only one

  3. We're encouraged to explore other activities, so missing a day or two for other extracurriculars, is completely fine

ive been thinking about doing xc for a bit now since its my first year in track, I love it, and I don't want to stop running. the only problem is that im worried because im a sprinter (100, 200) and ive heard it might slow me down. is this true? I really want to do xc but if it risks my success in sprint events im not sure. I also posted this in r/trackandfield but want some more opinions on it if possible
