Nike released their new Zoom Superfly Elite track shoes for the 2016 Olympics held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil - which are the talk of the town for track and field runners.

Asics, a Japanese athletic company, just acquired Runkeeper, a fitness application that is one of the most popular running apps to use.

According to motion-capture research, Adidas found that running shoes for women should be designed differently - due to forefoot expansion.
