Product Review: Lock Laces (elastic shoe laces)

Elastic laces are one of those things I wish I had known about at my first triathlon. These little gems make transitions super quick. Literally they can shave a minute or more off your transition times! With elastic laces you can just slip on your shoes without having to tie them and there is no risk of them untying during your event. Besides if your hands are cold from the open water it’s really hard to get your hands working enough to tie your shoes anyway. When ever I lecture at a triathlon clinic I like to tell everyone about these great laces and they are really inexpensive. You can even order them on-line and they have a lot of colors to choose from. They are also easy to put in.
