If there’s anyone who can make you feel like you’re one of the pros, it’s Nike. And “spike night” at Hayward Field—aka letting us common folk run around the same oval as future Olympians—during the Olympic Trials was no exception.

Check out some of the photos from the night, and tell us you don’t want those shoes (we totally wanted to keep them). Photos: Courtesy of Nike
