Cross country running involves
very little specialized equipment. Most races are run in shorts and vests or
singlets, usually in club or school colors. In particularly cold conditions,
long-sleeved shirts and tights can be worn to retain warmth without losing
mobility. The most common footwear are cross country spikes, lightweight racing
shoes with a rubber sole and approximately six metal spikes screwed into the
forefoot part of the sole.
Spike length depends on race
conditions, with a muddy course appropriate for spikes as long as 25
millimeters. If a course has a harder surface, spikes as short as 6 millimeters
may be most effective. While spikes are suitable for grassy, muddy, or other
slippery conditions, runners may choose to wear racing flats, rubber-soled
racing shoes without spikes, if the course includes significant portions of
paved surfaces or dirt road.
