Racer Carbon Tri is also on the new WA roster

In addition to the prototype Racer Carbon 2, the Racer Carbon Tri is also new to the list of shoes approved by World Athletics for use by the elite in competitions.

A Twitter user called my attention to the fact that in addition to the four new Olympikus shoes, there was also one more Fila shoe on the list of shoes authorized by World Athletics for use in races, in addition to the prototype of the Racer Carbon 2. Instagram user had also said that Fila had sent sneakers and was waiting for the update. I went there and opened the list again and there is the Racer Carbon Tri, recently launched in the Brazilian market.

In the email I had received from the Fila press office there was no indication from the company that they had already sent another shoe for review, so the inclusion of a Fila shoe on the list was a great surprise for me. I hope the company makes an effort to also include the KR series which is heavily used in track and field and shorter races.

It is very gratifying to see the two companies running after this protocol that only increases the credibility of the brand among runners.
